Abstract
The ability to access to large plastic deformations in cold rolling is applied here in order to determine the final orientations of different initial textures of Zr702α polycrystalline samples (T1-T4 textures). A distribution of the <c> axes in the vicinity of the normal direction (ND) of the sheets and an isotropic repartition of the {[MATH]} poles, almost in the rolling-transverse plane (RD-TD), appears as a final orientation for most of the analyzed samples. No significant reorientation of the {0002} poles from the (RD-ND) plane or from the vicinity of the ND direction to a stable orientation in the (ND-TD) plane is observed.
