, This paper addresses the development of an image analysis technique for direct tracking of fibers in an assembly. The algorithms are evaluated using simulated images presented in an earlier part of the series. The tracking method appears to be extremely efficient in determining fiber orientation distribution in nonwovens regardless of their structural characteristics.
