Abstract
- Point-, line- or boundary-sampled intercepts may be measured inside a particle as a measure of particle size. Each intercept is primarily characterized by three geometric properties: length, location and orientation. Circle and sphere models are used in the present study to analyze these properties. The probability distribution function, probability density function, expectation and coefficient of variation for each of the properties were presented based on geometric probability and mathematical statistics. Such presentation would be helpful for potential users of stereology to better understand the concept of intercepts and implement stereological intercept measurement for estimation of particle sizes in practice.
