A Study on the Anisotropy of Machined Surfaces

기계 가공면의 이방성에 관한 연구

In this paper, a method for assessment of the anisotropic machined surfaces is proposed. Fractal dimension (FD) is calculated using structure function and an index of the anisotropy is obtained as a ratio of its maximum and minimum value. The upper limit of fractal region on the structure function is determined as the length of the lag where the autocorrelation function shows 20% of its maximum value. The model of the structure function is derived from that of the auto correlation function. And, it shows that the new method and the proposed index of anisotropy are useful.
