An Automated Component Method

摘要

The construction of a nearly equal-distant grid of orientations is presented. Based on that grid a set of texture components can be defined which completely fill the orientation space. Only the intensities/volume fractions have to be calculated by applying the least squares fit. This requires a linear algorithm that can be performed automatically, i.e. it works independently of the user. This type of texture approximation can directly be used for numerical (grain by grain) simulation of texture-modifying processes.
