Abstract
Methods are described for specifying and measuring the degree of anisotropy in (a) lineal arrays in two-dimensional space and (b) lineal and areal arrays in three-dimensional space. From a measurement of the anisotropy in these features, it is possible to determine the average shape of grains, cells, or particles provided that there is a common axis of alignment.
