EBSD.weightedBurgersVec edit page

computes the weighted Burgers vector using the integral(default) or gradient method

Syntax

W = weightedBurgersVec(ebsd)

Weighted Burgers vector in specimen coordinates.

W = weightedBurgersVec(ebsd, 'windowSize', 2)

Weighted Burgers vector in specimen coordinates in a 5-by-5 loop.

W = inv(ebsd.orientations) .* weightedBurgersVec(ebsd)

Weighted Burgers vector in crystal coordinates.

W = weightedBurgersVec(ebsd,'gradient')

Weighted Burgers vector using the gradient method, just considering. Nearest neighbor pixels.

Input

ebsd EBSD

Options

`gradient`	`use the gradient (Note, windowSize is always 1!)`
`windowSize`	`radius of the integral window (default = 1), only used with integral method`

Output

`W`	`vector3d weighted Burgers vector in specimen coordinates`
