Rough-surface shadowing of self-affine random rough surfaces [PDF]
Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy and Radiative Transfer, 2007 Light scattering from self-affine homogeneous isotropic random rough surfaces is studied using the ray-optics approximation. Numerical methods are developed to accelerate the first-order scattering simulations from surfaces represented as single-connected single-valued random fields, and to store the results of the simulations into a numerical ...

Contact angle influence on the pull-in voltage of microswitches in the presence of capillary and quantum vacuum effects [PDF]
, 2007 Capillary condensation between the electrodes of microswitches influences the effective pull-in voltage in a manner that depends on the contact angle of the capillary meniscus and the presence of plate surface roughness.

Defects formation mechanism and evaluation of surface roughness in machining Al/SiCp composites
Journal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2018 During machining Al/SiCp composites, the machined surface takes on many defects such as grooves, pits, voids and protuberances, which greatly affect the characterization parameters of surface topography. However, a detailed investigation of the formation
