Erosive tests were carried out using abrasive containing quartz sand used in water jet cutting. Differences in the intensity of erosive wear were dependent on the angle of the abrasive stream (10◦ ; 15◦ ; 20◦ ; 30◦ ; 60◦ ; 90◦). In order to determine the characteristic features of the surface layer after the impact of the erosive stream, its characteristic parameters, such as roughness Ra and Sa for linear and field measurements, were analysed. Geometrical features of the regions investigated, such as shape, depth, angle of the abrasive stream, are presented. The analysis was carried out in two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) coordinate systems.}, type={Article}, title={Investigation of surface after erosion using optical profilometry technique}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/116011/PDF/art04.pdf}, doi={10.24425/mms.2020.132773}, keywords={optical profilometry, erosion, surface layer, roughness, 3D results}, }
