Schematic of in situ neutron diffraction experimental set-up on VULCAN. Top down view, not to scale. The red square represents the sampling volume defined by the incident beam and the radial collimators. The −90° and +90° detector banks record diffractions from the grains whose lattice planes (hkl) are perpendicular to Q1 and Q2, respectively, as shown in the two insets. The compression specimen (light-blue rectangle) is positioned at 45° from the incident beam such that Bank 1 probes the strain component along the loading direction (LD) while Bank 2 simultaneously detects the strain component in the transverse direction (TD)
