Leaves falling in air and bubbles rising in water provide daily examples of nonstraight paths
associated with the buoyancy-driven motion of a body in a fluid. Such paths are relevant to a …

A numerical “macroscopic-scale” method for static (including hysteresis) and moving contact
lines for partially wetting liquids is presented. The numerical method is based on the …

The present study investigates the effect that rough hydrophobic (or superhydrophobic)
surfaces have on the flow separation and subsequent vortex structures in a turbulent wake …

Results of the large eddy simulations (LES) over two partially superhydrophobic 3D
geometries, including the backward-facing step and the sphere at the Reynolds number of …

We analyze numerically the transition from straight to zigzag motion during the rising of a
single bubble in a still liquid. Results are reported for the regime in which the inner fluid …

Superhydrophobic surfaces with a slip effect have been proven to be effective to achieve
surface drag reduction. In this paper, we fabricated superhydrophobic disks via laser …

We conducted an experimental study on the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) dynamics of
cylinders featuring a specific superhydrophobic band. The superhydrophobic band refers to …

Superhydrophobic surfaces have been shown to produce significant drag reduction for both
laminar and turbulent flows of water through large-and small-scale channels. In this paper, a …
