To provide a comprehensive theoretical and experimental foundation for using x-ray diffraction to investigate the structure of crystalline substances.
Presents theoretical principles governing x-ray generation, atomic scattering, and Bragg diffraction.
Outlines experimental approaches, including Laue back-reflection, transmission methods, and powder diffractometry for polycrystalline materials.
Provides analytical techniques for measuring unit cell dimensions, lattice parameters, and crystal symmetry qualitatively and quantitatively.
Details methodologies for preferred orientation determination, residual stress evaluation, and qualitative phase identification in metallurgical specimens.

Implication
