Sample and materials
* Material: 6016 T4 aluminum alloy
* Average grain size: 40 µm
* Shape: Wide dogbone to fulfil plane strain conditions during tensile deformation
Experiment and characterisation
* LabDCT grain map of interior volume of undeformed sample
* X-ray imaging equipment: Zeiss Xradia 520 Versa X-ray microscope with LabDCT Pro module
* Absorption contrast scan: 60kV-4W, 4X detector, 1601 projections, 4.45 µm voxel size
* Diffraction contrast scan: 110kV-9W, flat panel detector, helical phyllotaxis HART scanning scheme, 1800 projections
Data
* Map dimensions:
- x = 0.44 mm (sample thickness)
- y = 0.24 mm (direction of near-zero strain in the plane strain condition, ~6 grain diameters width)
- z = 1.00 mm (tensile direction)
* Voxel size: 4 µm
* Number of grains: 1666, all of which are at least 27 voxels, and no voids
* Context: This is a cropped volume at the center of the sample, not the full volume analysed in the associated publication
* Format: .h5
