TY - JOUR AU - Gille, Wilfried PY - 2005 TI - Analysis of the Chord Length Distribution Along an Edge: The Wedge Case and the Quadratic Rod Case JF - Journal of Mathematics and Statistics VL - 1 IS - 2 DO - 10.3844/jmssp.2005.106.112 UR - https://thescipub.com/abstract/jmssp.2005.106.112 AB - The analytic expression is given for the chord length distribution density f(l,b) along the edge of an infinitely long rectangular wedge and for a quadratic rod, both of constant breadth b. The general result is: A constant behaviour for 0 < l < b and a finite jump of size 2/b at l = b is an intrinsic feature of a rectangular edge.
