The ‘stereometrical’ characteristics of the rough surface layers of engineering components, which are necessary for the calculation of rough-surface contact parameters, are often identified with the ‘planimetrical’ ones obtained from single profiles. In this paper, a relationship is obtained between these characteristics. Asperities are modelled by segments of spheres of equal radius and arbitrary height.
