Digital Images of Microstructures
There are many types of LOM including those using reflected light and those employing transmitted light. In this book, only the metallurgical microscope based on the principle of reflected light will be addres...

Chapter
Fundamental Statistics
According to the value of fractal dimension, the basic elements of material microstructures can be divided into two classes: regular objects (whose fractal dimensions are integer) and irregular objects (whose ...

Fractal Measurements of Projection Microstructures
The main task of the fractal measurements is to determine the fractal dimension. Usually, a physical object is fractal only within a limited range of scales. The scaling range, often characterized by a length,...

Chapter
Irregularity of Graphite Nodules
The first seven chapters of this monograph “set the scene” for the applications of fractal analysis in the quantification of the microstructures from materials. The remaining chapters (8 to 11) are written in ...

Chapter
Introduction
Microstructures of materials refer to a set of basic elements such as the arrangement of atoms or molecules, dislocations, grains, particles, surfaces, boundaries, etc. These basic elements may be made to appe...

Fractal Growth of Graphite Nodules
Researches on the growth of graphite nodules in malleable iron have currently been based on the assumption that graphite nodules are spherical et al. 1954; Owen et al., 1956; Birchenall et al., 1956; Burke, 1959 ...

Chapter
Fractal-based Study of Magnetic Thin Films
AFM and MFM (Mamin et al., 1989) have been extensively used for both qualitative and quantitative analysis of surface morphologies and magnetic microstructures of magnetic media. Quantitative analysis provides im...

Chapter
Fractal-based Study of Fracture Surfaces
Fracture is one of the most intriguing processes in material science and engineering as it is associated with the life and safety of engineering components. The mechanisms leading to fracture are very complex ...

Chapter
Image Processing
Image processing involves operations in the collection of information from signal processing of the 2D projections of a 3D scene. The image operations are defined as necessary changes of images so that quantit...

Fractal Fundamentals
“How long is the coast of Britain?” Mandelbrot (1982), establishing the great work of THE FRACTAL GEOMETRY OF NATURE, asked this interesting question. His answer was that its length is uncertain but depends on...

Fractal Measurements of Topographical Images from 3D Surfaces
Surfaces play an important role in many physical processes of materials. 3D information is related to the surfaces involved in scientific and engineering problems such as the growth front of thin films, interf...

The mechanical alloying of titanium aluminides
This article reviews the mechanical alloying of titanium aluminides carried out in the past decades. Research has proven that mechanical alloying is an efficient means to synthesize nano-structured and non-equ...
