The method is based on normalized Diffraction Elastic Constant ratio (DECR) within the framework of Stokes Wilson approximation and Gaussian microstrain distribution. The observed dispersion in classical Williamson-Hall plot was significantly reduced if DECR based correction was applied to the integral breadths. Classical grain interaction models such as the Reuss and Reuss-Voigt average (Neerfeld-Hill) models were used to calculate the elastic constants of deformed polycrystals of Aluminium and Copper. It is observed that if non-uniform microstrains are present in the sample (mostly in the case of dislocated crystals) then the Reuss model is more appropriate than the Reuss-Voigt average model and is observed in the case of filed or ball-milled samples of Cu and Al. The non-linearity in the anisotropy corrected Williamson-Hall is indicative of line widening caused by the dislocation.}, number={1}, journal={Journal of Theoretical and Applied Physics}, publisher={OICC Press}, author={Ghosh, Debtanu and Munshi, Sujay and Deb, Apurba Kanti and Chatterjee, Partha}, year={2023}, month={Nov.}, keywords={Diffraction Elastic Constant, Microstrain Broadening, Williamson-Hall, X-ray diffraction} }
