Measurement Type	Value (µm)	Description
Minor Axis	10	Smallest Feret diameter
Major Axis	20	Largest Feret diameter
Aspect Ratio (AR)	2.0	Major / Minor

\n\n

Formula Explained

\n

The aspect ratio is calculated using the following formula:

\n

Aspect Ratio = Major Feret Diameter / Minor Feret Diameter

\n\n

How to Use This Calculator

\n

\n
1. Measure the minor axis of the particle using a microscope or image analysis software.

\n

2. Measure the major axis of the particle.

\n

3. Enter these values into the calculator above.

\n

4. The calculator will instantly compute the aspect ratio.

Common Misconceptions

\n

\n
• Myth: Aspect ratio is the same as circularity.

\n

• Fact: Circularity is a measure of how closely a shape resembles a perfect circle, while aspect ratio measures elongation.
