Joint roughness is combination of primary and secondary roughness. Ordinarily primary roughness is a geostatistical part of a joint surface that has a periodic nature but secondary roughness or unevenness is a statistical part of that which have a random nature. Using roughness generating algorithms is a useful method for evaluation of joint roughness. In this paper after determining geostatistical parameters of the joint profile, were presented two roughness generating algorithms using Mount-Carlo method for evaluation of primary (GJRGAP) and secondary (GJRGAS) roughness. These based on geostatistical parameters (range and sill) and statistical parameters (standard deviation of asperities height, SDH, and standard deviation of asperities angle, SDA) for generation two-dimensional joint roughness profiles. In this study different geostatistical regions were defined depending on the range and SDH. As SDH increases, the height of the generated asperities increases and asperities become sharper and at a specific range (a specific curve) relation between SDH and SDA is linear. As the range in GJRGAP becomes larger (the base of the asperities) the shape of asperities becomes flatter. The results illustrate that joint profiles have larger SDA with increase of SDH and decrease of range. Consequencely increase of SDA leads to joint roughness parameters such Z2, Z3 and RP increases. The results showed that secondary roughness or unevenness has a great influence on roughness values. In general, it can be concluded that the shape and size of asperities are appropriate parameters to approach the field scale from the laboratory scale.

The present study aims to illuminate the vertical velocity profile of outer region of open-channel flow. Two sets of experiments were performed with PIV and propeller velocimeter. The first set was conducted to investigate the effect of bed roughness on the velocity distribution. The second set of experiments was carried out to find the effect of the Froude number on the velocity profile under the same bed roughness. The results reveal that the wake-law fits well with the experimental data from the bottom to the depth of maximum velocity, but it deviates from the experimental data above the maximum velocity point due to velocity-dip phenomenon, and that the velocity profile of the outer region is more influenced by the Froude number than the roughness. It is also shown that both the velocity difference between maximum velocity and surface velocity and the ratio of the average velocity to surface velocity become larger as the Froude number increases.

The effect of low profile agent and release agent on the surface and mechanical properties of bulk mold compound were investigated. Atomic content and contact angle of surface were characterized using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and contact anglemeter. Surface morphology and surface roughness were obtained using field emission scanning electron microscope and atomic force microscope, respectively. As increasing the low profile agent from 0 to 9.2 wt%, the volume shrinkage and surface roughness decreased from 0.35% to 0.05%, and from $0.27{\mu}m$ to $0.12{\mu}m$, respectively. The increase of release agent from 1.8 wt% to 3.6 wt% resulted in the migration of release agent to sample surface and it increased the surface roughness. The flexural strength and impact strength were decreased approximately 30% as the low profile agent increasing from 5.0 wt% to 9.0 wt%.

Engine Noise is composed of the mechanical and combustion noise. The contribution of combustion noise is generally bigger than the contribution of the mechanical noise at idle condition in DI diesel engine. That noise usually makes a roughness problem at the fundamental engine order. It is difficult to remove the modulation frequency so we have to directly reduce the combustion noise. The key effect of combustion noise reducing solution is the modification of the combustion pressure profile. It is accomplished by the multiple injection method and we solved the 400Hz combustion noise and improved the sound quality at idle condition in DI diesel engine.

To enhance the precision and productivity of ultra precision aspheric surface micro lens, the development of ultra-precision grinding system and process for the aspheric surface micro lens are described. In the work reported in this paper, an ultra-precision grinding system for manufacturing the aspheric surface micro lens was developed by considering the factors affecting the grinding surface roughness and profile accuracy. This paper deals with mirror grinding of an aspheric surface micro lens by resin bonded diamond wheel and spherical lens of BK7. The optimization of grinding conditions on ground surface roughness and profiles accuracy is investigated using the design of experiments.

The effect of tool angles on the surface roughness in face milling is studied. First, the relation between tool angles and rotation angles is identified. Using this relationship, it is obtained that the projection of insert nose shape on cutting profile, which is a part of ellipse. The effect of spindle tilt is also considered for the tool angles. It si shown that tool angles along with nose radius and feed rate have an effect on surface roughness.

It was found that surface roughness has a first-order effect on the interface shear strength and accordingly it should be accurately quantified if its role is to be properly understood. Most of the surface roughness parameters are based on the trisector approach (three dimensional parameter) which can provide a good measure of the surface roughness from a static perspective. However, if roughness is to be correlated with a directional sensitive parameter such as interface shear then a two dimensional parameter could be more meaningful if the roughness measurements are made parallel to the direction of shearing. In this paper, alternative roughness parameters which consider the direction of shearing are described. These directional parameters are compared with the existing roughness parameters, and the relationship between these directional and non-directional parameters are investigated. The surface roughness was quantified by using the Optical Profile Microscopy (OPM) method (Dove and Frost, 1996) based on the digital image analysis. The results showed that the various surface roughness parameters measured in this study exhibit similar trend of roughness values, so that, good relationships are obtained between these roughness parameters. As the surface roughness increases, the roughness values measured in trisector coupons are increasing higher than those measured in parallel coupons.

Profiles of naturally fractured surfaces of three sedimentary rock samples were plotted from the measured data using a mechanical profilometer. Fractal dimension of these profiles were computed and statistical F-test indicates that fractal dimension (FD) values can be used as a parameter for distinguishing the rock types. The comparison between FD values and a commonly used profile-roughness parameter called the Mayer's $Z_2$ parameter shows the superiority of the FD values as roughness estimator. Two-dimensional fractal roughness parameters of the same naturally fractured rock surfaces were also studied from their scanning electron microscopic (SEM) images at various magnification levels. The most suitable level of magnification of the SEM images for the study of the 2-D fractal roughness parameter was identified. The values of 2-D fractal roughness parameter for three different rocks were also compared using different methods of fractal dimensioning.

The frictional behavior of stamping process is a function of interface parameters such as sheet and tool material, lubricant, surface roughness, contact pressure, sliding speed etc. Among these parameters the thing that can be controlled by a steel maker is the surface roughness of sheet. In this study, effects of surface roughness on the frictional behavior of steel sheet for automotive were investigated to find out the way to improve the frictional characteristics of steel sheet. The cold rolled steel sheets with various surface roughnesses were prepared for the test. The flat type friction test was conducted with different lubricant conditions. The surface roughness effect on frictional behavior depends on the viscosity of lubricant. The frictional characteristic of steel sheet was influenced by the amplitude of roughness as well as the shape of that.
