Experimental inverse pole figures of alloy Mg-5% Li (mass): (a, b) initial state; (c–j) after alternating bending using different number of cycles: (c, d) 0.5, (e, f) 1.0, (g, h) 3.0, and (i, j) 5.0 cycles. Hatched regions correspond to twin reorientations of crystals on the twinning planes ; (d, f, g, i) correspond to the stretched side of the sheet; (c, e, h, j) correspond to the compressed side of sheets of alloy.
