Notes:
Zirconium alloys are widely used for different applications in nuclear industry. Preciseknowledge of their texture is of great relevance since this hcp metal exhibits a strong crystalanisotropy. Despite that, the mechanisms of texture change during its deformation and subsequentannealing are still not precisely known. Thus, there is a need for a better understanding of thefundamental mechanisms of recrystallisation. Earlier works on Zr702 [1-3] suggested that thekinetics and local mechanisms of recrystallisation after cold-rolling was controlled by theheterogeneity of the deformed microstructure and that, at the end of recrystallisation (correspondingto the disappearance of the deformed matrix), the position of the major texture componentsremained almost unaffected. The aim of the present work is to confirm whether these statements canbe generalized for various deformation conditions or not
