compute earing from odf and slip systems

Description

This function calculates the height h at each peripheral position of a cup drawn from a polycrystalline bcc metal sheet. In the analytical treatment, the polycrystalline sheet is assumed to be an aggregate of single crystals (grains) with various orientations. In the original paper, an orientation distribution function (ODF) constructed from texture data was used to calculate the weight of each single crystal. In this function, ebsd or grain data can be used:

  • For ebsd data, an ODF is first calculated. Following that, there are 2 options: (1) Calculate ODF components & volume fractions using MTEX-default functions, or (2) Calculate the volume fractions of a discretised ODF. For both options, the volume fraction is used as the weight.
  • Alternatively, for grain data, weights are computed using the grain area fraction. The ear may be calculated crystallographically by considering both, restricted glide and pencil glide; with the former returning better predictions in the original paper.
