- Summary:
- A reference on almost every conceivable aspect of measuring and characterising a surface. It is a vital addition to the bookshelves of a wide range of engineering postgraduate students and researchers - in tribology, instrumentation and data processing as well as metrology.
- Useful guidelines for the design of precision instruments are set down for development engineers, and the book is also an essential reference for design engineers looking for data on the functional importance of surfaces. Most terms and parameters are defined according to national and international standards, so it is also ideal for quality engineers.
- Also included is a clear explanation of the essential theory relevant to surface metrology.
