Diffraction peak profile analysis (or Line Profile Analysis, LPA) has recently been developed to such an extent that it can be applied as a powerful method for the characterization of microstructures of crystalline materials in terms of crystallite size-distribution and dislocation structures. Physically based theoretical functions and their Fourier coefficients are available for both, the size...

In this paper a statistical model of grain size distribution is proposed. It is su¢ ciently simple to be studied analytically. The resulting grain size distribution does not contain …tting parameters and describes reasonably well the experimental data. The statistical model is based on the suggested in the paper tessellation condition, the necessary and su¢ cient condition for a set of grains t...

In order to investigate the effects of the grain size distribution and the micro-structure of soils on the mechanical characteristics, some static triaxial compression tests were carried out, and then the relationship of stress-strain and the strength behavior of silty sand were compared among undisturbed samples with different grain size distribution, undisturbed and remolded samples with the ...

We investigate the role and behaviour of dust grains in C-type MHD shock waves in weakly ionized, dense molecular clouds. The structure of C-type shocks in molecular clouds are largely determined by the coupling of the charged species and the magnetic fields in the pre-shock gas. In weakly ionized clouds, charged dust grains enhance the energy and momentum transfer between the magnetic field an...

The concept of grain size distribution is important in many industrial processes. In this study, rolled chrome concentrate was investigated to find the average grain size. Distribution classification was used with covariance, gray level difference, LBP, Laws and color features. As a comparison cooccurrence features were used. Classification was performed by a distribution classifier using leave...
