Orientation Correlation in 72.5% Strained OFE Copper

Misorientation Correlation Functions, MCFs, for a 72.5 percent cold-rolled OFE copper plate werecalculated for groups of local lattice orientation measurements taken from the rolling-normal androlling-transverse planes of the sample. The MCFs′ dependence upon sample direction, orientationpair selection and the spatial separation of orientation measurements was explored. A preferredmisorientation region in Euler space was identified and found to contain misorientations correspondingto coincides of ∑3, ∑33c, ∑37c and ∑43c. MCFs associated with orientations of interest were foundto exhibit unique characteristics.
