The laser diffraction (LD) is one of the most widely applied grain size measurement methods. The main advantages of LD are: (1) relatively short time of single measurement, (2) low cost of analysis, (3) simplicity of sample preparation, (4) great amount of acquired numerical data. One of the less frequently obtained parameters, often provided only by application of dedicated external hardware, is so-called ?elongation parameter?, ?grain shape factor? or ?grain shape parameter?. Due to the inability of direct expor...
