With Identify Grains, individual grains are identified and analyzed in a given structure. The method introduces a segmentation of the grains, based on a distance transform, which identifies the number of grains, as well as the grain volume, sphericity, and the orientation of the grains. Based on the statistical properties of the identified grains, a digital twin of the structure can be created with GrainGeo. Find more details about the theory behind Identify Grains in the Theoretical Basics section.

The Identify Grains dialog opens when clicking the Edit… button and includes the Grain Segmentation tab, the Output Options tab and the Constituent Materials tab.

At the top of the dialog, enter the Result File Name. The result file is saved in the chosen project folder (File → Choose Project Folder in the menu bar).
