The function of a component part can be profoundly affected by its
surface topography. There are many examples in nature of surfaces
that have a well-controlled topography to affect their function.
Examples include the hydrophobic effect of the lotus leaf, the
reduction of fluid drag due to the riblet structure of shark skin,
the directional adhesion of the gecko foot and the angular
sensitivity of the multi-faceted fly eye. Surface structuring is
also being used extensively in modern manufacturing. In this way
many properties can be altered, for example optical, tribological,
biological and fluidic. 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. 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.
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 range of
subject areas - from automobile manufacture to archaeology.
