Orientation Sections edit page

Sections of the orientations space

A third possibility are two dimensional sections through the Euler angle space. The most popular type of such sections are the so called phi2 sections.

cs = crystalSymmetry('432')
ss = specimenSymmetry('222')


ori = orientation.rand(100,cs,ss)

% as phi2 sections
plotSection(ori,'phi2')
cs = crystalSymmetry
