Forward modeling of diffraction peaks is a potential way to compare the results of theoretical mechanical simulations and experimental X-ray diffraction (XRD) data recorded during in situ experiments. As the input data are the strain or displacement field within a representative volume of the material containing dislocations, a computer-aided efficient and accurate method to generate these fields is necessary. With this aim, a current and promising numerical method is based on the use of the fast Fourier transform (FFT)-based method. However, classic FFT-based methods present some numerical artifacts due to the Gibbs phenomenon or "aliasing" and to "voxelization" effects. Here, we propose several improvements: first, a consistent discrete Green operator to remove "aliasing" effects; and second, a method to minimize the voxelization artifacts generated by dislocation loops inclined with respect to the computational grid. Then, we show the effect of these improvements on theoretical diffraction peaks.
