Synopsis

This book details a comprehensive system for the accurate measurement of surface roughness using a stylus instrument and minicomputer. The author describes a step-by-step process for calibrating the system using an interferometrically measured step, and for calculating important characterizations of surface profiles. These characterizations include the arithmetic average value, the mean square value, the amplitude density function, the autocorrelation function, the average wavelength, the average slope, the skewness, and the kurtosis. The author also includes a statistical evaluation, using empirical and analytical techniques, of the calibration procedure's long-term stability. The significance of this book lies in its contribution to the study of surface roughness. It provides a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners in the field, offering a comprehensive and reliable method for characterizing surface topography.
