Surface Roughness, Texture, and Tribology Short Course 2026

Looking for an opportunity to learning about surface roughness and how it relates to wear, friction, sealing, vibration, noise, appearance, and more?

Dr. Donald Cohen, one of the country's foremost experts, is once again presenting his Surface Texture and Tribology short course, May 13–14, 2026, in Livonia, Michigan. The course modules cover a broad range of topics on surface texture and how it impacts the functionality of a component.

This course is designed for scientists, engineers and technicians working in automotive, aerospace, materials, polymers, and other fields. The class offers material to benefit both relative novices and advanced metrology users to further their understanding of these essential topics.

Course material includes:

• Measuring roughness, waviness, and form
• Surface roughness parameters
• Wear Mechanisms, Measurement, and Specification
• Friction (Sliding, Rolling, Lubricated)
• Noise and Vibration
• Surface Energy, Wetting, and Adhesion
• Sealing
• Coating Appearance
• Surface Metrology Correlation, Specification and Strategy
