Geometry of surfaces : a practical guide for mechanical engineers / Stephen P. Radzevich.

This updated and expanded edition presents a highly accurate specification for part surface machining. Precise specification reduces the cost of this widely used industrial operation as accurately specified and machined part surfaces do not need to undergo costly final finishing. Dr. Radzevich descr...
