In this paper the Archard model and classical results of mean square calculus are used to derive two Cauchy problems in terms of the expected value and covariance of the worn height stochastic process. The uncertainty is present in the wear and roughness coefficients. In order to model the uncertainty, random variables or stochastic processes are used. In the latter case, the expected value and covariance of the worn height stochastic process are obtained for three combinations of correlation models for the wear and roughness coefficients. Numerical examples for both models are solved. For the model based on a random variable, a larger dispersion in terms of worn height stochastic process was observed.
