Calculate the mean of the long and short values and take the ratio of these means to get $$1 + e_1 : 1 + e_2$$. For reference, use Figure 14.3 as a example. There is no need to add \(1\) to the mean values.
Finally, draw an example deformed grain in the box provided below the images.
Take the mean of the long and short axes. That goes in the \(\bar{x}\) line.
Deterine the ratios $$1+e_2 : 1+e_3$$ and $$1+e_1 : 1+e_3$$
Remember, it is not necessary to add \(1\) to these values
Combine those ratios to determine $$1+e_1 : 1+e_2 : 1+e_3$$
using the following relationship:
$$\frac{1+e_1}{1+e_2} = \frac{1+e_1}{1+e_3}\frac{1+e_3}{1+e_2}$$
Make sure the value of \(1+e_3 = 1.0\)
Plot those ratios on the graph provided
Problem 14.8
Just as in 14.2, measure the long and short axes of a collection of grains; write those values in the lines provided
