15A.1
The Rf Method: Uses objects not
initially spherical (like deformed
conglomerates) to measure deformation
by looking at original ellipticity and
deformedellipticity.
Rf(max)=RiRs
Rf(min)=Ri/RsifRsRi
=Rs/RiifRsRi
15A.2
The Fry Method: Uses the distances
betweenthecentersofobjects(ieooids)
that were initially constantly and
isotropically distributed to provide a
measure of deformation and strain (see
Lab9).
15A.3
The Wellman Method: a graphical
construction method for determining
strain.(seefig15A.5)
