ODF Analysis

Explains how to import and export ODFs, how to define model ODFs and how to analyze ODFs, e.g., with respect to modalorientations, textureindex, volumeportions. Pole figure simulation and single orientation simulation is explained as well.

Model ODFsDescribes how to define model ODFs in MTEX, i.e., uniform ODFs, unimodal ODFs, fibre ODFs, Bingham ODFs and ODFs defined by its Fourier coefficients.

Characterizing ODFsExplains how to analyze ODFs, i.e. how to compute modal orientations, texture index, volume portions, Fourier coefficients and pole figures.
Visualizing ODFsExplains all possibilities to visualize ODfs, i.e. pole figure plots, inverse pole figure plots, ODF sections, fibre sections.
