Expressions are derived for the dependence of the magnetic
properties of cubic materials on texture. The theoretical
development generally parallels that of Bunge, but employs Roe's
formalism. The expressions, together with limited experimental
data, enable one to express magnetic property variations in the
plane of the sheet, to obtain property values for comparable
texture-free specimens, and to separate magnetic properties into
texture-dependent and texture-independent components. Core loss,
magnetic permeability and torque or specimens of "nonoriented"
nominal 3% silicon-iron are fitted to simple fourth-order equations.
