Estimation and interpretation of the intra-granular stress and strain evolution in a uniaxially loaded silica sample using scanning x-ray diffraction
The intra-granular stress and strain evolution of 12 quasi-spherical silica grains, subject to uniaxial loading, has been investigated by analysis of scanning x-ray diffraction data collected at the ID11 ESRF synchrotron beamline. By applying the methods described by Henningsson et al. [1], the intra-granular strains were reconstructed and converted into stresses using an anisotropic linear-elasti
