fitEllipse edit page

fit ellipses to grains using the method described in Mulchrone& Choudhury,2004 (https://doi.org/10.1016/S0191-8141(03)00093-2)

Syntax

[c,a,b] = fitEllipse(grains);
plotEllipse(c,a,b,omega,'lineColor','r')

Input

grains grain2d

Output

c centroid
a long axis
b short axis

Options

boundary scale to fit boundary length

Example

mtexdata csl grains = calcGrains(ebsd('indexed')) grains = smooth(grains,10) plot(ebsd('indexed'),ebsd('indexed').orientations,'micronbar','off') hold on plot(grains.boundary,'lineWidth',2) [c,a,b] = fitEllipse(grains(grains.grainSize>20)); plotEllipse(c,a,b,'lineColor','w','lineWidth',2) hold off
