import pole figure data
Description
PoleFigure.load is a high level method for importing pole figure data from external files. It auto-detects the format of the file. As parameters the method requires the crystal and specimen symmetry. Additionally it is sometimes required to pass a list of crystal directions and a list of structure coefficients. See interfaces for an example how to import superposed pole figures. In the case of generic ASCII files each of which consist of a table containing in each row a specimen direction and a diffraction intensity see loadPoleFigure_generic for additional options. Furthermore, you can specify a comment to be associated with the data.
Syntax
pf = PoleFigure.load(fname)fnames = {fname1,...,fnameN} % define filename(s)
h = {h1,..,hN} % define crystal directions
c = {c1,..,cN} % define structure coefficients
pf = PoleFigure.load(fnames,h,cs,ss,'superposition',c)Input
| fname | filename(s) |
| h1,...,hN | Miller crystal directions |
| c1,...,cN | structure coefficients for superposed pole figures (optional) |
| cs, ss | crystal, specimen symmetry |
Output
| pf | vector of PoleFigure |
