Abstract
⺠The statistics of the Fry method of strain analysis is examined. ⺠Point objects in the pre-deformed state are assumed in the Poisson distribution truncated at the maximum probability density function (PDF) of a certain point object. ⺠The mean log likelihood function (MLLF) is the average sum of the log PDF of each individual point in the deformed state. ⺠A new strain method is developed that solves for unknown parameters, strain and cutoff radius by maximizing the MLLF.
