a Representative grain texture with 60 grain orientations shown by rotated cubes. b Pole figures of panel (a) with the solid-liquid interface determined at the same position as the simulation at 15 μs. c Density Pole Figure of panel (a). d Density Pole Figure of 4 simulations. e zs[100] or Z-score of the projection sum of the secondary [100] direction on the Y-axis as a function solidification distance. Blue squares correspond to the simulation shown in panel (a). Gray open circles, squares, and triangles correspond to experimental results for Al1Si, Al3Si, and Al6Si, respectively. f zp[010] or Z-score of the projection sum of the primary [010] direction on the X-axis. g zp[011] or Z-score of the projection sum of the primary [011] direction on the X-axis. h Number of grains within the melt pool shown in panel (a).
