In the current study, a rate-dependent crystal plasticity finite element method (CPFEM) was used to simulate flow stress behavior and texture evolution of a body-centered cubic (BCC) crystalline material during plastic deformation at room temperature. To account for crystallographic slip and rotation, a rate-dependent crystal constitutive law with a hardening model was incorporated into an in-house finite element program, CAMPform3D. Microstructural heterogeneity and anisotropy were handled by assigning a crystallographic orientation to each integration point of the element and determining the stiffness matrix of the individual crystal. Uniaxial tensile tests of single crystals with different crystallographic orientations were simulated to determine the material parameters in the hardening model. The texture evolution during four different deformation modes - uniaxial tension, uniaxial compression, channel die compression, and simple shear deformation - was investigated based on the comparison with experimental data available in the literature.

AA5182-polypropylene sandwich sheet was manufactured, and the mechanical properties evaluation was executed in order to identify $L{\ddot{u}}ders$ band that causes fabrication process problem and especially surface roughness. To identify formability, deformation behavior, plastic strain ratio (R-value) and pole figure were measured, and texture analysis was performed. In the case of sandwich sheet, the unstable deformation behavior has decreased. As well, for sandwich sheet, A1 skin could manage the most of load, and the elongation has improved about 45% more than that of A1 skin. The plastic strain ratio of A1 skin and sandwich panel, which indicates serration behavior, was obtained from instantaneous plastic strain ratio evaluation. Also, the planar anisotropy of sandwich sheet has decreased more than that of A1 skin. According to these results, the sandwich sheet produced lightening effect and could control unstable deformation characteristic, that is, surface roughness caused by $L{\ddot{u}}ders$ band. Furthermore, it was proved that the texture control of the rolling attachment of A1 skin is necessary to improve the formability of the sandwich panel.

In this study, nitrogen ions were implanted into STS 316L austenitic stainless steel by plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) to improve the corrosion resistance. The implantation of nitrogen ions was performed with bias voltages of -5, -10, -15, and -20 kV. The implantation time was 240 min and the implantation temperature was kept at room temperature. With nitrogen implantation, the corrosion resistance of 316 L improved in comparison with that of the bare steel. The effects of nitrogen ion implantation on the electrochemical corrosion behavior of the specimen were investigated by the potentiodynamic polarization test, which was conducted in a 0.5 M $H_2SO_4$ solution at $70^{\circ}C$. The phase evolution and texture caused by the nitrogen ion implantation were analyzed by an X-ray diffractometer. It was demonstrated that the samples implanted at lower bias voltages, i.e., 5 kV and 10 kV, showed an expanded austenite phase, ${\gamma}_N$, and strong (111) texture morphology. Those samples exhibited a better corrosion resistance.

The evolution of textures in Fe-Ni alloy thin films fabricated by PVD using a sputtering method was investigated with parameters such as deposition time and chemical composition. The textures of the as-deposited films were characterized by fibre-type. In Invar alloy(Fe-36.5 wt%Ni) thin film, the <110>//ND fibre texture as a starting component changed to the <210>//ND fibre texture with increasing deposition time. In Permalloy(Fe-81 wt%Ni) thin film, a mixture of the <221>//ND and <311>//ND fibres developed at the early stage of deposition, and then transformed to the <210>//ND fibre with increasing deposition time. These texture changes were discussed in terms of relationship with the microstructural evolution of the films.

In order to obtain the initial starting sample having a random texture and fine grains, aluminum alloy 3103 sheets were repeatedly deformed by CCSS up to six passages and subsequently annealed at $300^{\circ}C$ for 1h. These samples were cold rolled at room temperature and also warm rolled at $250^{\circ}C$. Changes in rolling temperature gave rise to the different texture evolution. Warm rolling led to the pronounced texture gradients comprising the shear texture at the surface and the rolling texture at the sheet center. The formation of the rolling texture components, i.e., the ${\beta}$-fiber, was promoted by cold rolling than warm rolling.

This paper describes a technique for detecting the boundary of the optic disk in digital image of the retina using inward and outward curve evolution. This paper offers medical information about glaucoma progresses. For accurate boundary detection, image inpainting based on texture synthesis removes blood vessels crossing the optic disk. For removing noises and preserving boundary of optic disk in image inpainting process, the anisotropic diffusion filtering is necessary. After pre-processing, the optic disk boundary is determined using inward and outward curve evolution. The experimental results show that the algorithm is effective for detection of optic disk boundary.

Recrystallization textures of ferritic stainless steel sheets of STS 430 were varied by means of different cold rolling procedures. The conventional normal rolling led to the evolution of strong through-thickness texture gradients in the final recrystallization texture, while the cross-rolling led to a decrease in texture gradients. Micro-texture observation by EBSD revealed that the formation of band-like orientation colonies formed close to the center layer was responsible for ridging. Modification of the recrystallization texture and microstructure by cross-rolling destroyed band-like orientation colonies and consequently reduced the ridging height.

The effect of lubrication on the evolution of the cold rolling texture in low carbon steels was studied by X-ray texture measurement. The cold rolling texture was inhomogeneous through the thickness of the rolling sheet. The type and sharpness of the texture through the thickness and the degree of inhomogeneity were found to be dependent on the friction acting between rolls and the rolled materials. The degree of the through thickness inhomogeneities was higher in the specimen rolled without lubrication. The friction acting on the roll surface led to the formation of the Goss-Orientation in the rolling texture.

A Ni/Ag/Stainless steel 310S(SS310S) multi-layer sheet has been fabricated by a combination of vacuum brazing, cold rolling and texture annealing processes. After heat-treating the thin Ni/Ag/SS310S multi-layer sheet at $900^{\circ}C$ for 2h, development of (100)<001>cube texture on Ni surface was revealed by (111) pole figure. Quantitative chemical analysis was made by EPMA for the cross-section of the Ni/Ag/SS310S multi-layer sheet. EPMA results showed that Ag diffusion into the Ni layer, which may suppress the cube texture development, was negligible. A small amount of Cr atoms were detected in the Ni layer. It showed that Ag can be used as a chemical barrier of alloying element atoms in Ni layer for the Ni/Ag/SS310S multi-layer sheet and a strong cube texture was developed for the Ni layer in the Ni/Ag/SS310S multi-layer sheet.

The influence of rolling draughts on the formation of through-thickness textures in aluminum 5000X sheet was investigated by X-ray texture measurements and microstructure observations. In order to intensify the deformation inhomogeneities, cold rolling was performed without lubrication. Applying a large draught gave rise to the formation of the shear texture at the surface, whereas a normal plane strain testure formed at the surface after deformation with a small draught. The orientation density along the $\beta$-fiber orientations which developed in the center layer of the rolled specimen was also dependent on the strain gradients in a roll gap. Upon annealing, the deformed substructure of sample surfaces was transformed into a fine grained recrystallized microsturcture through extended recovery reaction. However, coarse grains developed after the discontinuous recrystallization which gave rise to the development of the Cube-texture.
