(screw) threads
Explanation:
Actually, this refers to the threads of a screw
(which do look like little mountain ranges when
you think about it). And ねじ山が発生 means
the threads were 'stripped'. As for the 内面 part,
I can only guess that it means the threads were
stripped while the screw was still lodged in whereever
it was being screwed (into).

Actually, I was wrong about the 発生 part. 発生 probably
just means "where the threads start" on the screw.
'Stripped threads' would be 「ねじ山が剥離している」。

Anyway, ねじ山 means 'threads'!

helps. Joe

agree  michiko tsum (X): I'm guessing 発生 here refers to when a screw is screwed(?) in all the way to the other side (内面) and the thread becomes visible./Interesting site...いろいろな研究をしている人がいるものですね。Ah, I thoughtねじ 山is the end part. <
