Abstract
Uranium metal has been reduced 80% in thickness by rolling. The thermal dilations of the finished plates have been determined and correlated with theoretical dilations, calculated by assuming various types and degrees of preferred orientations. The results confirm that a (010)--(110) double texture develops at rolling temperatures just below the recrystallization point. BETA - treatment does not give completely randomly oriented metal. Cross rolling changes the developed textures which are again dependent upon the exact rolling schedule. (auth)
