Computer-simulated diffraction patterns for metastable austenitic steels

The paper deals with the computer simulation of composite theoretical electron-diffraction patterns for metastable austenitic steels, containing deformation and martensite transformation structures. In many cases generated data can be used for interpretation of experimentally determined diffraction patterns. A few examples are presented which demonstrate that the application of the composite theoretical diffraction patterns may be complicated due to various diffraction effects which can modify the geometry of experimentally obtained diffraction patterns.
