“…Penetration through moderate thicknesses (mm-cm) of metallic samples combined with the advantages of high speed area detectors and short collection times have enabled a new generation of high energy synchrotron x-ray diffraction experiments [34], [48], [30], [49], [13], [33], [23], [5]. This large number of lattice strain measurements can be assembled into lattice strain pole figures [15], [46], [36], [33], which can be "inverted" to calculate the orientation-dependent strain and stress tensors within the polycrystalline diffraction volume [3], [47], [6]. The strain pole figure inversion method, which was employed in McNelis et al [31] and is consistent with the method developed by Bernier et al [6] for in situ loading experiments, is used in this work to make the connection between the measured lattice strains and the stress distribution over all crystal orientations within each diffraction volume.…”
