Fig. 6. EBSD orientation maps of β phase and α phase morphology in Y-Z section of 2-bead wall after three-stage heat treatment: a columnar β grain zone, b equiaxed β grain zone. a-1, b-1 the 2nd layer; a-2, b-2 the 18th layer; a-3, b-3 the 32th layer. The dashed lines indicate the original β grain boundaries. The insets are (001) pole figures of β grains
