Find Kernel Average Misorientations

Group (Subgroup)

Statistics Filters (Crystallographic)

Description

This Filter determines the Kernel Average Misorientation (KAM) for each Cell. The user can select the size of the kernel to be used in teh calculation. The kernel size entered by the user is the radius of the kernel (i.e. entering values of 1 and 2 will result in a 3x3 and a 5x5 kernel, respectively). The algorithm for determination of KAM is as follows:

  1. Calculate the misorientation angle between each Cell in a kernel and the central Cell of the kernel.
  2. Average all of the misorientations for the kernel and store at the central Cell.

Required Arrays

Type Default Name Description Comment Filters Known to Create Data
Cell GrainIds Ids (ints) that specify to which Field each Cell belongs. Values should be present from segmentation of experimental data or synthetic generation and cannot be determined by this filter. Not having these values will result in the filter to fail/not execute. Segment Fields (Misorientation, C-Axis Misorientation, Scalar) (Reconstruction), Read Dx File (IO), Read Ph File (IO), Pack Primary Phases (SyntheticBuilding), Insert Precipitate Phases (SyntheticBuilding), Establish Matrix Phase (SyntheticBuilding)
Cell Quats Five (5) values (floats) that specify the orientation of the Cell in quaternion representation Filter will calculate the quaternion for each Cell if it is not already calculated. Find Cell Quaternions (Generic)
Cell CellPhases Phase Id (int) specifying the phase of the Cell Values should be present from experimental data or synthetic generation and cannot be determined by this filter. Not having these values will result in the filter to fail/not execute. Read H5Ebsd File (IO), Pack Primary Phases (SyntheticBuilding), Insert Precipitate Phases (SyntheticBuilding), Establish Matrix Phase (SyntheticBuilding)
Ensemble CrystalStructures Enumeration (int) specifying the crystal structure of each Ensemble/phase (Hexagonal=0, Cubic=1, Orthorhombic=2) Values should be present from experimental data or synthetic generation and cannot be determined by this filter. Not having these values will result in the filter to fail/not execute. Read H5Ebsd File (IO), Read Ensemble Info File (IO), Initialize Synthetic Volume (SyntheticBuilding)
