Irregularities present on a surface are often described as surface roughness or texture. These surface textures such as grooves and dimples impart friction, which is the force between two sliding ...

A new adaptive surface hides objects from infrared cameras by switching between two modes that match surrounding temperatures in both hot and cold environments. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Infrared cameras ...

Being able to quantify a surface finish is both a complex and necessary task. While surface topography relates to a three-dimensional property, the most accepted surface measurement parameter is ...
