Poly-XTAL operation” maps texture based crystalline orientations to each lattice site and constructs a CTF file commonly used by the EBSD community, which can then be easily imported into MTEX using the command “EBSDDATA = loadEBSD('CTF_FILE_NAME.ctf')”. Once imported, all MTEX grain structure and texture analysis tools become available on all the temporal slices of grain structure formed using Poly-XTAL Operations.

  • Generating texture

  • Associating texture to grain structure

Care must be taken in associating different temporal instances of an evolving grain structure to the same texture (having statistical similarity), because the grain structure with low grain count will have a relatively lesser exactness when compared to either the model texture or the EBSD data of texture.
