- CONCLUSION
- Three regions were identified:
- Low processing strain ? < 2.5: No recrystallization, elongated structure.
- Intermediate strain 2.5 < ? < 3.2: Nucleation of recrystallization, shear bands formation. Shear bands occurred in grains with S{123}> orientation, and were inclined at 54° to the drawing direction. Their misorientation was between 5°??s?10°.
- High strain ? > 3.2: Extended recrystallization, recrystallized grains were mainly of Cube {001}> and S{123}> orientations.
- OIM proved to be a viable tool in the study of heavily deformed materials.
