EBSD3.KAM edit page

intragranular average misorientation angle per orientation

Syntax

plot(ebsd,ebsd.KAM ./ degree)
% ignore misorientation angles > threshold
kam = KAM(ebsd,'threshold',10*degree);
plot(ebsd,kam./degree)
% ignore grain boundary misorientations
[grains, ebsd] = calcGrains(ebsd)
plot(ebsd, ebsd.KAM./degree)
% consider also second order neigbors
kam = KAM(ebsd,'order',2);
plot(ebsd,kam./degree)

Input

ebsd EBSD

Options

threshold ignore misorientation angles larger then threshold
order consider neighbors of order n
max take not the mean but the maximum misorientation angle
