Texture mapping in electron beam welded dissimilar copper-stainless steel joints by neutron diffraction

“…Different conventional non-destructive techniques like X-Ray, electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) have already been performed for weld texture study. With comparison to this, neutron diffraction has the ability to penetrate thick metals approximately 1 cm 3 (for steel) which provides the unique possibility to study bulk textural properties and coarse-grained materials as well as the texture of fine-grained materials with excellent grains statistics [9,10]. Joints performance not only associated with the surface but solely depends on bulk properties which can be explained by bulk texture.…”
