  2. Surface engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_engineering

    Surface engineering is the sub-discipline of materials science which deals with the surface of solid matter. It has applications to chemistry , mechanical engineering , and electrical engineering (particularly in relation to semiconductor manufacturing ).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_modification

    Surface engineering is the sub-discipline of materials science which deals with the surface of solid matter. It has applications to chemistry, mechanical engineering, and electrical engineering (particularly in relation to semiconductor manufacturing). Solids are composed of a bulk material covered by

  4. Leibniz Institute of Surface Engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leibniz_Institute_of...

    The Institute of Surface Engineering (IOM) was officially founded on 1 January 1992 as a Blue List Institute of the Leibniz Association. The founding director was Prof Frieder Bigl. This was preceded by the dissolution of the ZfI on 31 December 1991 as part of the reorganisation of research institutes following the German reunification. [3] [4]

  5. Surface finish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_finish

    Surface roughness, commonly shortened to roughness, is a measure of the total spaced surface irregularities. [1] In engineering, this is what is usually meant by "surface finish." A Lower number constitutes finer irregularities, i.e., a smoother surface.

  6. Surface science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_science

    Surface chemistry can be roughly defined as the study of chemical reactions at interfaces. It is closely related to surface engineering, which aims at modifying the chemical composition of a surface by incorporation of selected elements or functional groups that produce various desired effects or improvements in the properties of the surface or interface.

  7. Freeform surface modelling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeform_surface_modelling

    Freeform surface modelling is a technique for engineering freeform surfaces with a CAD or CAID system.. The technology has encompassed two main fields. Either creating aesthetic surfaces (class A surfaces) that also perform a function; for example, car bodies and consumer product outer forms, or technical surfaces for components such as gas turbine blades and other fluid dynamic engineering ...

  8. Reflective surfaces (climate engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflective_surfaces...

    The average daily summertime temperature of the black roof surface was 75 °C (167 °F), but once retrofitted with a white reflective surface, it measured 52 °C (126 °F). Without considering any tax benefits or other utility charges, annual energy expenditures were reduced by $7,200 or $0.07/square foot.(This figure is for energy charges as ...

  9. Surface roughness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_roughness

    Surface roughness can be regarded as the quality of a surface of not being smooth and it is hence linked to human perception of the surface texture. From a mathematical perspective it is related to the spatial variability structure of surfaces, and inherently it is a multiscale property.
