abstract = "The features present in 3D structure have geometric properties that fall into two broad categories: topological and metric. Metric properties are generally the more familiar; these include volume, surface area, line length and curvature. Equally or even more important in some applications are the topological properties of features. The two principal topological properties are number per unit volume and connectivity. In the present study, a change in morphology of pearlite and dual phase microstructures was examined from differential geometry and topology viewpoint. 3D images of eutectoid pearlite and dual phase steels were obtained by reconstructing serial sectioning images. Their metric and topological features were evaluated using The Euler Poincare formula and The Gauss-Bonnet Theorem. In addition, newly developed fully-automated serial sectioning 3D microscope {"}Genus-3D{"} will be also introduced.",
