Maud2.8

The Internet is filled with all sort of software solutions for various professions or hobbies. Maud is a nice program that allows you to analyze materials and textures fast.It uses multiple tools to perform a comprehensive analysis on diffraction spectra and obtain crystal structures. You can also use it for analyzing the quantity of phrases, as well as for texture and residual stress.

Sleek graphical interface with plenty of tools

The application doesn't take long to install and it doesn't come with a complicated setup that you would need to complete before you can actually use it. The graphical interface is quite intuitive, with plenty of tools at hand and a layout that makes it easy to load various datasets and analyze diffraction spectra.It comes with some samples and examples that you can check out, so you would know what to expect before you actually start working on your own projects.

Analyze various datasets

Maud allows you to open multiple datasets in order to analyze files and perform calculations. You can view datasets in plots, plots 2D or residuals 2D.It displays the name of the file at the bottom of the screen, together with values, minimum and maximum values, errors, status and more. You can zoom in on graphs and adjust information inside datasets and loaded files.

More features and tools

It comes with some changes that you can make to the interface, change the layout and pick from one of the many available. You can also add new objects to datasets, save objects to CIF files or other datasets.It's packed with some analysis that you can make, there's the option to enable texture extraction/computation, strain extraction, structure factor, background interpolation and more. You can adjust the refinement model, set the quantity to minimize, use theoretical weights and more. All in all, Maud is a very nice software solution for analyzing textures, as it's packed with lots of useful tools and features.
