For regularly structured surfaces, 3D roughness parameters obtained from profilometry can "Max!
conveniently be used to assess local plastic deformation with a resolution corresponding to that of
the usual measuring grid technique (1x1 mm?). Automatic measurement is possible but the accuracy
is limited to about +/-0.05 true strain which may prove insufficient for practical purposes. Kurzfas
Surface patterns like lubricant pockets or microstructural features visible in etched surfaces can Die Kırate
advantageously be used instead of grids. The grain structures of the ferritic steel investigated here [ie
offers excellent opportunities for assessment of strain with a high resolution. The experimental error u.
is related to the resolution by the usual rules of statistics. If a comparison of same location before IS de
and after deformation is possible, a high lateral resolution and a high precision, independent of each oh
other, are obtained. The limit of resolution depends only on the size of the smallest features which Die ing
can be relocated in the magnified images after deformation and the experimental error is Lisi
appreciably smaller than for all other methods tested in this work. in wi
