Fig. 6. (A) Contour plot of ${eta}$ (the ratio of the s.d. in the strain and the mean strain) as a function of ${gamma}$ _max and p for a developmental stage of 2 d.p.f. The computation is made for the concave side of the body with =5, and deformation type I (i.e. with lateral body thickening). The highest value of ${eta}$ of is obtained for high values of ${gamma}$ _max and p. (B) Idem for a developmental stage of 51 d.p.f., with the optimum for strain uniformity at p=1.4 and ${gamma}$ _max=26°.
