Minkowski tensors of anisotropic spatial structure
This paper describes the theoretical foundation of and explicit algorithms for a novel approach to morphology and anisotropy analysis of complex spatial structure using tensor-valued Minkowski functionals, the socalled Minkowski tensors. Minkowski tensors are generalizations of the wellknown scalar Minkowski functionals and are explicitly sensitive to anisotropic aspects of morphology, relevant...
متن کاملVoronoi-Based Estimation of Minkowski Tensors from Finite Point Samples
Intrinsic volumes and Minkowski tensors have been used to describe the geometry of real world objects. This paper presents an estimator that allows to approximate these quantities from digital images. It is based on a generalized Steiner formula for Minkowski tensors of sets of positive reach. When the resolution goes to infinity, the estimator converges to the true value if the underlying obje...
متن کاملJammed spheres: Minkowski tensors reveal onset of local crystallinity.
The local structure of disordered jammed packings of monodisperse spheres without friction, generated by the Lubachevsky-Stillinger algorithm, is studied for packing fractions above and below 64%. The structural similarity of the particle environments to fcc or hcp crystalline packings (local crystallinity) is quantified by order metrics based on rank-four Minkowski tensors. We find a critical ...
متن کاملMetric tensors for anisotropic mesh generation
It has been amply demonstrated that significant improvements in accuracy and efficiency can be gained when a properly chosen anisotropic mesh is used in the numerical solution for a large class of problems which exhibit anisotropic solution features. In practice, an anisotropic mesh is commonly generated as a quasi-uniform mesh in the metric determined by a tensor specifying the shape, size, or...
متن کاملAnisotropic Polarization Tensors for Ellipses and Ellipsoids
In this paper we present a systematic way of computing the polarization tensors, anisotropic as well as isotropic, based on the boundary integral method. We then use this method to compute the anisotropic polarization tensor for ellipses and ellipsoids. The computation reveals the pair of anisotropy and ellipses which produce the same polarization tensors. Mathematics subject classification: 45...
