Abstract
Nowadays it is difficult to list all disciplines where stereology is applied, starting from biology and medicine, through materials science, geology and agriculture, up to military systems, biometry, meteorology, geography, physics, astronomy, sophisticated vision systems and even history or art sciences. The strength of the stereology as a scientific discipline lies in its multidisciplinary character and even now, in the century of the digital revolution, doesn't become obsolete. Over the last five decades stereology has responded to the challenges of the times. Its creators and enthusiasts have adapted this field of science to the current challenges existing practically everywhere if only an image (formally: section or projection) is a source of information. A particular area of application of stereology is the study of tribological problems in the aspect of the geometry of the surface layer because it is these issues that determine the correct and reliable operation of mechanical devices in which there are kinematic pairs; thus, it is an area of Mechanical Engineering.
