Fourier transform-based method for quantifying the three-dimensional orientation distribution of fibrous units

Abstract Several materials and tissues are characterized by a microstructure composed of fibrous units embedded in a ground matrix. In this paper, a novel three-dimensional (3D) Fourier transform-based method for quantifying the distribution of fiber orientations is presented. The method allows for...
