Summary: | This paper provides a comprehensive literature review of numerical simulation models for engineering surfaces. This review attempts to make a link between the development of mainstream models, especially focusing on recent advances in surface topography modeling research within the last 2-3 years, and presenting future perspectives on these aspects. However, it is important to note that surface topography modeling serves more of a subsequent tribological simulation. Tribology is a highly multidisciplinary field, and its research results are widely distributed across various disciplines. Therefore, some literature may have been missed in this review. This review attempts to make a link between the development of mainstream models, and presenting future perspectives on these aspects. We hope that such a review will lead to the latest focused research and be useful to the growing community of theoretical research on engineering surface modeling.
