Description
This publication deals with the latest developments in the field of 3D surface metrology and will become a seminal text in this important
area.
It has been prepared with the support of the European Community?s Directorate General XII and represents the culmination of research
conducted by 11 international partners as part of an EU-funded project. The aim of the project is to inform standards bodies of the possibilities
that exist for a new international standard covering the field of 3D surface characterisation.
The book covers a description of the
proposed 3D surface parameters and advanced filtering techniques using wavelet and robust Gaussian methodologies. The next generation
areal surface characterisation theories are discussed and their practical implementation is illustrated. It describes techniques for
calibration of 3D instrumentation, including stylus instruments as well as scanning probe instrumentation. Practical verification of the 3D parameters and the filtering is illustrated through a series of case studies which cover bio-implant surfaces, automotive cylinder
liner and steel sheet. Finally, future developments of the subject are alluded to and implications for future standardisation and development
are discussed.
Audience
Precision engineers, undergraduates and postgraduates of precision engineering and metrology, researchers in the field of metrology, companies
working in the field of metrology, metrology instrument manufacturers, metrology software developers
