| Summary: | Based on the principle of maximum entropy method (MEM) for quantitative texture analysis, the differential evolution (DE) algorithm was effectively introduced. Using a DE-optimized algorithm with a faster but more stable convergence rate of iteration reliable complete orientation distributions (C-ODF) have been obtained for deep-drawn IF steel sheets and the recrystallized aluminum foils after cold-rolling, which are designated as showing a macroscopic cubic-orthogonal symmetry. With special reference to the data processing, no more other assumptions are required for DE-optimized MEM except that the system entropy approach the maximum.
