Good day all, 

I am trying to figure out the relationships between twins in monazite; 

For some reason, MATLAB does not follow the command to restrict the grain boundary to a specific phase (Monazite-Monazite in my case):

gB_MonMon = gB('Monazite-(Ce)','Monazite-(Ce)')

Output: 
"Error using ischar
Not enough input arguments.

Error in grainBoundary/subsref (line 31)
    if ~ischar(gB.CSList{phId})"

See attached image. 

Any further operations do not go through either :(

I am trying to identify the angle and the rotation axis between the twins.

I would appreciate any help!
Thank you
Best wishes
Elizaveta

Hi,
could you please just repeat your problem on the new forum/discussion list? https://github.com/mtex-toolbox/mtex/discussions

Hi all, 

I have downloaded the newest version and all works there. Thanks! 

But I got quite lost here:

"We may determin the center of the cluster and check whether it is close to some special orientation relation ship

% determine the mean of the cluster 
mori_mean = mean(mori,'robust') 

  % determine the closest special orientation relation ship 

round2Miller(mori_mean)mori_mean = misorientation 

size: 1 x 1 
crystal symmetry : Magnesium (6/mmm, X||a*, Y||b, Z||c*) 
crystal symmetry : Magnesium (6/mmm, X||a*, Y||b, Z||c*) 
antipodal: true 
Bunge Euler angles in degree 
phi1 Phi phi2 Inv. 
90.5949 86.0962 269.995 0 
(10-1-2) || (-101-2) [1-210] || [1-210] error: 0.65°

Bases on the output above we may now define the special orientation relationship as

twinning = orientation.map(Miller(0,1,-1,-2,CS),Miller(0,-1,1,-2,CS),... Miller(2,-1,-1,0,CS),Miller(2,-1,-1,0,CS))  "

Where have these Miller indices in the last line came from? They are not the same as in the output? 

Thank you
Best wishes
Elizaveta

Hi,

that would have been my suggestion. Could you please still ask in the
new forum? https://github.com/mtex-toolbox/mtex/discussions

Cheers,
Rüdiger
