The proposed experiment will focus on determining the level of texture memory and variant selection on both heating and cooling for steel and titanium and zirconium alloys with the aim to determine critical variables which determine transformation textures. These data will complement EBSD data and validate computer simulations. Neutron texture measurements are particularly valuable for such work because of their ability to probe the bulk and sample representative volumes. Moreover, the high detector coverage in GEM allows complete texture data capture in one shot, thus we believe that GEM, in combination with the furnace facility, offers a unique opportunity to measure the texture of phase transforming materials in situ as a function of temperature with a high level of reliability.
