5. (a) Backscattered electron images h5, h8, h11 and h14 from figure 3; (b) their corresponding discrete Fourier transforms (DFTs) and (c) a horizontal line profile across the centre of each DFT and showing a decrease in the centre peak width with increasing d...

9. The full width of half the maximum (FWHM) of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) as a function of the engineering strain based on images recorded at increments of plastic strain during an in situ tensile test; note that the elastic strain of 0.6% has been...
