Research on Morphology of Fracture with Combined Method of Fractal and Spatial Gray Level Co-Occurrence Matrix

Yong Wang · Journal of China University of Mining and Technology · 2006

In order to describe the morphologyof fracture objectively and quantitatively,four typical fractures were analyzed with the combined method of fractal and spatial gray level co-occurrence matrix.The study results show thatthe fractal dimension has relation with roughness and complexity of fracture,each of the 2-order statistical feature parameters of spatial gray level co-occurrence matrix can describe exactly a certain fracture texture character and have good texture expression abilities.By combined the fractal dimension with the 2-order statistical parameters of spatial gray level co-occurrence matrix as a set of feature parameters,the complexity and roughness of the fracture texture can be described effectively.This method may realize the quantitative analysis and automatic class identification for fracture texture,and can be used as a reference for other texture picture analysis.
