The Rex textures of freestanding electro- and vapor-deposits of metals and heavily deformed metals and alloys whose stored energies due to dislocations constitute the main driving forces for Rex can be determined such that AMSDs in the fabricated matrix can be along MYMDs in Rexed grains or nuclei, and by other conditions which can maximize the strain-energy release in the system. The strain-energy-release-maximization theory can explain the following

**1.** The <100>, <111> and <110> electro- and vapor-deposition textures of Cu, Ni, and Ag

**3.** The <111>+<100> drawing textures of uniaxially drawn Ag, Al, Cu, and Au wires change

**4.** Channel-die compressed {110}<001> Al single crystal keeps its {110}<001>deformation

**5.** The {135}<2 1-1> Al sheet obtained by channel-die compression of Al crystals of {123}<412> orientations by 90% develops {-0.0062 0.2781 0.9606}<0.9907 0.1322 -0.0319> ≈ {0 1 3.5}<31

**6.** An Al crystal of {112}<111> obtained by channel-die compression of a (001)[110] Al single

**7.** The (123)[-6-3 4] + (321)[-436] + {112}<111> Cu sheet obtained after reversible rolling of a (123)[-6-3 4] Cu single crystal by 99.5% under oil lubrication develops the Rex texture of major {001} <100> + minor (0 3-1)[100] orientations. The {001}<100> and (0 3-1)[100]

transform to the <100>, <100>, and <√3 1 0> textures, respectively, after Rex.

**2.** The <100> and <111> deposition textures of Cr remain unchanged after Rex.
