Title: Surface Roughness Calculation
Post by: jdrunner on August 14, 2025, 01:57:24 AM

Good afternoon,

We were curious if GeoDict has a known module that uses the rendered 3D volume to calculate the surface roughness. Thank you.

Respectfully,
Jack Davis

Hi,

do you have a structure model where you want to add surface roughness? That can be done with GrainGeo - Roughen Surface (https://geodict-userguide.math2market.de/2025/graingeo_roughensurface.html (https://geodict-userguide.math2market.de/2025/graingeo_roughensurface.html)).
Or do you have a segmented scan where the solid surface is rough and you want to somehow calculate the roughness? Is this to create a statistical digital twin? There is no direct solution for this, but using Python scripting you can optimize the structure according to the desired properties, e.g. pore size distribution or permeability. 

Best regards,
Janine
