Fundamental study to quantitatively evaluate not only the root-mean-square (rms) roughness Rq but also skewness Rsk of non-Gaussian random rough surfaces by ultrasonic method is presented. In this work, Johnson distribution together with Kirchhoff theory have been employed to derive a newly proposed...
