Abstract
We show that specific signatures in the pair distribution function and x-ra y and neutron-scattering structure factors in a variety of functional elast ic materials, previously ascribed to local structural distortions, could in stead he due to an underlying anisotropic, long-range elastic field. We ill ustrate this conclusion on simple textures, e.g., twins, tweed, using relax ational computer simulations, pair distribution function analysis, and stru cture factors in two dimensions.
