We propose to characterize quantitatively the through-thickness variation of crystallographic textures in rolled plates and tubes by a novel methodology combining neutron diffraction and transmission experiments on ENGIN-X.Specifically, we propose to investigate small circular sections (~10mm diameter x thickness of tube or plate). The overall texture of the specimen is defined by conventional, incomplete pole figures recorded by re-grouping the 1200 elements composing ENGIN-X banks into smaller groups of higher angular resolution (~5x5 degrees). Local departures from this overall texture occuring across the thickness of the samples are quantified by transmission measurements using the Medipix detector.We will investigate samples produced from Zr2.5%Nb pressure tubes, rolled plates from an experimental shape-memory steel based on FeMnSi, and deep-drawing low-carbon steel sheet.
