An. Ivanov et al., X-RAY-DIFFRACTION DETERMINATION OF THE FORMABILITY OF LOW-CARBON SHEET STEEL, Russian journal of nondestructive testing, 29(9), 1993, pp. 670-673
A rapid method of measurement with an error of less than 5% of the fac
tor of normal plastic anisotropy RBAR in automotive sheet steel has be
en proposed and tested. Determination of RBAR is based on diffractomet
ric measurement in the plane of the sheet of the ratio of the integral
intensities of the 222 and 200 lines (I222/I200) recorded in MoK(alph
a)- and AgK(alpha)-radiations. A short description is given of the met
hod of specimen preparation and the method of measurement of integral
intensity.
