The texture matches that of a bccÊsimple shear texture that was transformed to hcpÊaccording to the Burgers orientation relationship, which aligns with , although there is also evidence of a P1 hcpÊshear texture component. Deformation therefore occurred predominantly above the [beta] transus, and the [alpha] texture was inherited from a simple shear texture of the [beta] phase.", doi = "10.1016/j.scriptamat.2009.02.050" }
