Abstract
A refinement of the zero‐range method, a procedure to calculate the odd order coefficients in the series expansion method of texture analysis, is presented. The only assumption in this procedure is the positivity condition. In this respect, it is comparable to the quadratic method. Contrary to this method, however, the even order coefficients are not changed. No zero range in the pole figures and no shape of the existing texture is to be assumed.Keywords
