Why spin sharing seems to be successful in texture simulations?
The current paper presents further developments in the scheme of co-spin used to simulate texture evolution in polycrystalline materials [1]. Statistical parameters are calculated to show the agreement between experimental distribution functions and log-normal distributions. The capabilities of the model to calculate crystal reorientations at the level of a few grains are also checked and the model is further founded on physical grounds.
