DESCRIPTION:
Previously, single line (profile) measurements were adequate to control manufacture of surfaces, but as the need to control the functionality of surfaces increases, there is a growing need for three-dimensional (areal) measurement and characterisation techniques. This book will present the areal framework that is being adopted by the international community. Whereas previous books have concentrated on the measurement aspects, this book concentrates on the characterisation techniques, i.e. In this way many properties can be altered, for example optical, tribological

A great introductory and reference text supporting the transition from simple line-trace profile tools for surface texture to areal surface measurements. The chapters are written by leading experts in the field, edited by Richard Leach into a cohesive, concise and comprehen
There are many examples in nature of surfaces that have a well-controlled topography to affect their function. Whereas previous books have concentrated on the measurement aspects, this book concentrates on the characterisation techniques, i.e. Previously, single line (profile) measurements were adequate to control manufacture of surfaces, but as the need to control the functionality of surfaces increases, there is a growing need for three-dimensional (areal) measurement and characterisation techniques. For this reason there has been considerable research, development and standardisation of areal techniques. In this way many properties can be altered, for example optical, tribological, biological and fluidic. how to interpret the measurement data to give the appropriate (functional) information for a given task. The first part of the book presents the characterisation methods and the second part case studies that highlight the use of areal methods in a broad
