Abstract
A new methodology based on a conservation principle in the orientation space is developed to simulate the texture evolution in a cubic-orthotropic polycrystalline system. A least squares error method was used to improve the accuracy of the simulation results obtained from the texture evolution function. The model is applied to uniaxial tension, compression and rolling for a large deformation of more than 50% using a single evolution parameter. The validity and application range of this new model are discussed by simulating and predicting texture evolution during different loading conditions. The new methodology provides a family of texture evolution paths and streamlines which empowers the materials designer to optimize the desired microstructure.
