Fig. 4: Simulated Z, μ, and shape descriptors.

Relationships between Z and (a) surface area (A), (c) inverse sphericity (1/Φ), and (e) aspect ratio (λ). Relationships between μ and (b) A, (d) 1/Φ, and (f) λ for seven particle shape families, with 1 ≤ λ ≤ 10. The error bars denote ± 1 the standard deviation of the mean.
