| dc.description.abstract | Certain properties, such as cracking or corrosion, can occur mainly along grain boundaries. Certain types of boundaries may be more beneficial for material properties. The way that the boundaries are connected in a material can determine how boundaries will affect properties, for instance, whether or not crack resistant boundaries will arrest the growth of a crack. Boundaries in a polycrystalline material connect together at triple junctions. In this paper, we examine how the distribution of low angle boundaries at triple junctions varies with the texture of a material. | en_US |
