Figure 4 (a) X-ray diffraction pattern of Ti-6Al-4V alloy refined using the newly proposed calibration procedure. Peaks of the minority phases, the b.c.c. (denoted by `b') and the orthorhombic phase (denoted by `o') are indicated. Note the presence of the small 310 peak of the phase. (b) X-ray diffraction pattern of Ti-6Al-4V alloy refined using the newly proposed calibration procedure, obtained from a different location within the sample. The 310 peak of the phase is absent from this pattern.
