Introduction
This document is a geometrical product specification (GPS) standard and is to be regarded as a general
GPS standard (see ISO 14638). It influences the chain link B of the chains of standards on areal surface
texture.
The ISO/GPS matrix model given in ISO 14638 gives an overview of the ISO/GPS system of which this
document is a part. The fundamental rules of ISO/GPS given in ISO 8015 apply to this document and
the default decision rules given in ISO 14253-1 apply to the specifications made in accordance with this
document, unless otherwise indicated.
For more detailed information of the relation of this document to other standards and the GPS matrix
model, see Annex I. An overview of standards on profiles and areal surface texture is given in Annex H.
This document develops the terminology, concepts and parameters for areal surface texture.
Throughout this document, parameters are written as abbreviations with lower-case suffixes (as in Sq
or Vmp) when used in a sentence and are written as symbols with subscripts (as in S or V ) when used
q mp
in formulae, to avoid misinterpretations of compound letters as an indication of multiplication between
quantities in formulae. The parameters in lower case are used in product documentation, drawings and
data sheets.
Parameters are calculated from coordinates defined in the specification coordinate system, or from
derived quantities (e.g. gradient, curvature).
Parameters are defined for the continuous case, but in verification they are calculated on discrete
surfaces such as the primary extracted surface.
A short history of the work done on areal surface texture can be found in Annex C.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 16610-1:2015 and
ISO 17450-1:2011 and the following apply.
ISO and IEC maintain terminology databases for use in standardization at the following addresses:
— ISO Online browsing platform: available at https:// www .iso .org/ obp
— IEC Electropedia: available at https:// www .electropedia .org/
3.1 General terms
3.1.1
skin model
model of the physical interface of the workpiece with its environment
[SOURCE: ISO 17450-1:2011, 3.2.2]
3.1.2
surface texture
geometrical irregularities contained in a scale-limited surface (3.1.9)
Note 1 to entry: Surface texture does not include those geometrical irregularities contributing to the form or
shape of the surface.
ISO 25178-2:2021(E)
3.1.3
mechanical surface
boundary of the erosion, by a sphere of radius r, of the locus of the centre of an ideal tactile sphere, also
with radius r, rolled over the skin model (3.1.1) of a workpiece
[SOURCE: ISO 14406:2010, 3.1.1, modified — Notes to entry removed.]
3.1.3.1
electromagnetic surface
surface obtained by the electromagnetic interaction with the skin model (3.1.1) of a workpiece
[SOURCE: ISO 14406:2010, 3.1.2, modified — Notes to entry removed.]
3.1.3.2
auxiliary surface
surface, other than mechanical or electromagnetic, obtained by an interaction with the skin model
(3.1.1) of a workpiece
Note 1 to entry: A mathematical surface (softgauge) is an example of an auxiliary surface.
Note 2 to entry: Other physical measurement principles, such as tunnelling microscopy or atomic force
microscopy, can also serve as an auxiliary surface. See Figure 1 and Annex G.
3.1.4
specification coordinate system
system of coordinates in which surface texture parameters are specified
Note 1 to entry: If the nominal form of the surface is a plane (or portion of a plane), it is common (practice) to
use a rectangular coordinate system in which the axes form a right-handed Cartesian set, the x-axis and the
y-axis also lying on the nominal surface, and the z-axis being in an outward direction (from the material to the
surrounding medium). This convention is adopted throughout the rest of this document.
3.1.5
primary surface
surface portion obtained when a surface portion is represented as a specified primary mathematical
model with specified nesting index (3.1.6.4)
Note 1 to entry: In this document, an S-filter is used to derive the primary surface. See Figure 1.
[SOURCE: ISO 16610-1:2015, 3.3, modified — Note 1 to entry added.]
Figure 1 — Definition of primary surface
ISO 25178-2:2021(E)
3.1.5.1
primary extracted surface
finite set of data points sampled from the primary surface (3.1.5)
[SOURCE: ISO 14406:2010, 3.7, modified — Notes to entry removed.]
3.1.6
surface filter
filtration operator applied to a surface
3.1.6.1
S-filter
surface filter (3.1.6) which removes small-scale lateral components from the surface, resulting in the
primary surface (3.1.5)
3.1.6.2
L-filter
surface filter (3.1.6) which removes large-scale lateral components from the primary surface (3.1.5) or
S-F surface (3.1.7)
Note 1 to entry: When the L-filter is not tolerant to form, it needs to be applied on an S-F surface; when it is
tolerant to form, it can be applied either on the primary surface or on an S-F surface.
3.1.6.3
F-operation
operation which removes form from the primary surface (3.1.5)
Note 1 to entry: Some F-operations (such as association) have a very different action to that of filtration. Though
their action can limit the larger lateral scales of a surface, this action is very fuzzy. It is represented in Figure 2
using the same convention as for a filter.
Note 2 to entry: Some L-filters are not tolerant to form and require an F-operation first as a prefilter before being
applied.
Note 3 to entry: An F-operation can be a filtration operation such as a robust Gaussian filter.
3.1.6.4
nesting index
N , N , N
is ic if
number or set of numbers indicating the relative level of nesting for a particular primary mathematical
model
[SOURCE: ISO 16610-1:2015, 3.2.1, modified — definition revised and notes to entry removed.]
3.1.7
S-F surface
surface derived from the primary surface (3.1.5) by removing the form using an F-operation (3.1.6.3)
Note 1 to entry: Figure 2 illustrates the relationship between the S-F surface and the S-filter and F-operation.
Note 2 to entry: If filtered with N nesting index to remove the shortest wavelengths from the surface, the surface
is
is equivalent to a “primary surface”. In this case, N is the areal equivalent of the λs cut-off. See key reference 4 in
is
Figure 2 and Annex G.
Note 3 to entry: If filtered with N nesting index to separate longer from shorter wavelengths, the surface is
ic
equivalent to a “waviness surface”. In this case, N is the areal equivalent of the λc cut-off. See key reference 5 in
ic
Figure 2 and Annex G.
Note 4 to entry: The concepts of “roughness” or “waviness” are less important in areal surface texture than in
profile surface texture. Some surfaces can exhibit roughness in one direction and waviness in the perpendicular
direction. That is why the concepts of S-L surface and S-F surface are preferred in this document.
ISO 25178-2:2021(E)
3.1.8
S-L surface
surface derived from the S-F surface (3.1.7) by removing the large-scale components using an L-filter
(3.1.6.2)
Note 1 to entry: Figure 2 illustrates the relationship between the S-L surface and the S-filter and L-filter.
Note 2 to entry: If the S-filter nesting index N is chosen to remove the shortest wavelengths from the surface
is
and the L-filter nesting index N is chosen in order to separate longer from shorter wavelengths, the surface is
ic
equivalent to a “roughness surface”. See key reference 6 in Figure 2 and Annex G.
Note 3 to entry: A series of S-L surfaces can be generated with narrow bandwidth using an S-filter and an L-filter
of close nesting indices (or equal), in order to achieve a multiscale exploration of the surface. See Figure 3.
