RECRYSTALLIZATION OF DEFORMED ALPHA-URANIUM SINGLE CRYSTALS. Final Report- -Metallurgy Division Program 4.1.19. Work Completed-January 1, 1956
The orientation relationships between deformed alpha-uranium single crystals and recrystallized grains grown in them by annealing can be expressed as 27.5 deg rotations about axes located 70.0 deg from the STA100!, 63.5 deg from the STA010! and 34.0 deg from the STA001! of the deformed orientation. The rotations are clockwise about two of the axes and counterclockwise about the other two. In deriving these relationships it was necessary to consider the recrystallized grains as originating from deformation twin orientations as well as from the parent crystal orientation. The relationship agrees well with expermentel observations of recrystallization textures developed from deformation textures for polycrystalline rod and sheet uranium treated in the alpha phase.
