Abstract

A new stereological problem, unfolding the bivariate size-orientation distribution of platelike particles from vertical uniform random sections, is solved. While the theoretical double integral equation has been derived by Gokhale(1995), here we proceed by discretization. The input histogram of planar size-orientation parameters is transformed to the desired histogram of spatial quantities. The discretized equation is solved by means of an EM-algorithm. Practical application when investigating the damage initiation process in metal matrix composites follows. The data measured by an image analyser are transformed and some important parameters are derived from the bivariate distribution.
