Metallurgical Analysis Made Easy

I found this tool very useful for analyzing metallurgical cross sections. My company makes metal matrix composite materials. This is a great tool to analyze SEM polished cross section microstructures.

It would be great if you could put a scale feature on this so that you could calculate average particle size. But that’s asking too much.

FAQ

What is StraboTools used for?

StraboTools is designed to aid geologic field work by providing quantitative data that are difficult to estimate in the field. It analyzes photographs to help determine rock fabric orientations and mineral composition.

What kind of rocks can StraboTools analyze?

While developed for plutonic rocks like granite, StraboTools can be useful for field work in any type of rock and for the study of thin sections.

How does the Edge Fabric tool work?

The Edge Fabric tool plots an ellipse summarizing the orientations of image brightness gradients. This ellipse provides the orientation of the fabric and an axial ratio, correlating with bulk deformation.

How does StraboTools determine the Color Index?

The Color Index tool allows quantitative determination of the color index from a photograph. Users highlight pixels darker than a certain threshold, and the app displays the resulting area percent.

Is StraboTools available on Android?

Based on the provided data, StraboTools is available on iPhone, iPad, and iPod. Information regarding Android compatibility is not available.

How often is StraboTools updated?

The latest version of StraboTools, 1.5, was last updated on August 30, 2023. This indicates a relatively recent update frequency.
