Mr1 Smallest material ratio Mr1 of the roughness core
profile: Material ratio (in %) of the intersection line
which separates the protruding peaks from the
roughness core profile.
Mr2 Largest material ratio Mr2 of the roughness core
profile: Material ratio (in %) of the intersection line
which separates the deep valleys from the rough-
ness core profile.
