Abstract This paper is devoted to machining of concrete by grinding and the metrology of its surface morphologies. The surface morphology is still open problem from metrological as well as mathematical morphology points of views. In order to understand better abrasive process the raw morphologic state is compared with the ground concrete surfaces. The most significant results are presented in the form of profiles, 3D isometric views and isotropy analysis. Several 3D surface roughness parameters were calculated.

Surface roughness is an important factor in many soil moisture retrieval models. Therefore, any mischaracterization of surface roughness parameters (root mean square height, RMSH, and correlation length, ʅ) may result in unreliable predictions and soil moisture estimations. In many environments, but particularly in agricultural settings, surface roughness parameters may show different behaviours with respect to the orientation or azimuth. Consequently, the relationship between SAR polarimetric variables and surface roughness parameters may vary depending on measurement orientation. Generally, roughness obtained for many SAR-based studies is estimated using pin profilers that may, or may not, be collected with careful attention to orientation to the satellite look angle. In this study, we characterized surface roughness parameters in multi-azimuth mode using a terrestrial laser scanner (TLS). We characterized the surface roughness parameters in different orientations and then examined the sensitivity between polarimetric variables and surface roughness parameters; further, we compared these results to roughness profiles obtained using traditional pin profilers. The results showed that the polarimetric variables were more sensitive to the surface roughness parameters at higher incidence angles (θ). Moreover, when surface roughness measurements were conducted at the look angle of RADARSAT-2, more significant correlations were observed between polarimetric variables and surface roughness parameters. Our results also indicated that TLS can represent more reliable results than pin profiler in the measurement of the surface roughness parameters.

This work performed molecular dynamic simulations to study the 2D profile and 3D surface topography in the nanometric cutting process. The least square mean method was used to model the evaluation criteria for the surface roughness at the nanometric scale. The result showed that the cutting speed was the most important factor influencing the spacing between the peaks, the sharpness of the peaks, and the randomness of the profile. The plastic deformation degree of the machined surface at the nanometric scale was significantly influenced by the cutting speed and depth of cut. The 2D and 3D surface roughness parameters exhibited a similar variation tendency, and the parameters Ra and Rq tended to increase gradually with an increase in the cutting speed and a decrease in the depth of cut. Finally, it is concluded that at the nanometric scale, the 3D surface roughness parameters could more accurately reflect the real surface characteristics than the 2D parameters.

The surface topography errors of micro-EDM are mainly composed of surface roughness, surface waveness and so on. Research shows that the surface morphology provides a lot of useful information, which has serious influence on the friction and lubrication characteristics of the surface. However, for the micro-EDM surface topography evaluation problem, researchers have been using surface roughness parameters and evaluation method of mechanical process, which restrict the micro-EDM technology further development. On this account, the surface roughness parameters of micro-EDM have been deeply studied in this paper according to its technology characteristics and the surface morphology characteristics, therefore, the main researches and creative points are obtained, which the influence that the surface roughness of micro-EDM parts impact on their using performance is analyzed, and based on the surface morphology characteristics, some roughness evaluation parameters are given respectively according to peaks and valley, moreover, their numerical calculation are also gained.

The aim of this work is to propose a methodology of lifetime prediction of details by new approach for linear wear intensity determination using 3D surface roughness parameters. For qualitative evaluation of the wear process the linear wear intensity (Ih), which may be determined separately for the plastic and elastic contact, is commonly used. Since the elastic contact is mainly required in pairs of details in mechanical engineering in these paper this kind of contact was examined. In our research, the random surface model was used. The surface machined with abrasive instruments (grinding, polishing, honing, etc) has the irregular shape of surface roughness, which can be described with random function. Irregular surface is expressed by a random field h(x, y) of two variables x and y which are Cartesian coordinates of a surfaces point, where the height of roughness asperity h(x, y) has a normal probability distribution. In wear research the probability theory was used. Further in deformed volume calculation, as well as in determination of the length of the surface’s contact the 3D surface roughness parameters were used. The strong correlation between 3D roughness parameters Sa (arithmetic mean height) and Str=Rsm1/Rsm2 (texture aspect ratio of the surface) was revealed. As a result of research, the methodology of lifetime prediction of details by new approach for linear wear intensity determination using 3D surface roughness parameters was elaborated and proposed. After calculation of linear wear intensity Ih, it is possible to estimate lifetime of wearing details. So, at a first time in wear estimation the 3D surface roughness parameters were used. The results of this work have wide practical application, for example in design, texture specification on drawings etc.
