Description of variables

Compactness

coefficient (Kc)

$Kc=0.28\times \frac{P}{\sqrt{A}}=0.28\times \frac{66.053}{\sqrt{190.823}}=1.34$

Compactness coefficient (Kc) is the association between the perimeter (P) of the basin and the circumference of a circle presenting area equal to the basin ( $\sqrt{A}$ ).

Shape factor (Kf)

$Kf=\frac{A}{L^2}=\frac{190.823}{{64}^2}=0.046$

The shape factor (Kf) is the association between the mean width (A) and the axial length of the basin (L²).
