The evaporation of a sessile droplet of liquid is a complex and multifaceted fundamental
topic of enduring scientific interest that is key to numerous physical and biological …

Many systems require very high heat removal rates in small areas due to the increase in
their packing density, such as power electronics. These systems need to be cooled to …

The wetting of solid surfaces using liquid droplets has been studied since the early 1800s.
Thomas Young and Pierre-Simon Laplace investigated the wetting properties, as well as the …

Over the last decades, a fabulous variety of synthetic superhydrophobic surfaces have been
created, offering unique anti-wetting properties. A significant focus for these surfaces has …

In the evaporation of microlitre liquid droplets, the accepted view is that surface tension
dominates and the effect of gravity is negligible. We report, through the first use of rotating …

In this paper, the pinning and depinning mechanism of the contact line during droplet
evaporation on chemically stripe-patterned surfaces is numerically investigated using a …

Robust millimeter-sized spherical particles with controlled compositions and microstructures
hold promises of important practical applications especially in relation to continuous flow …

Despite the fact that sessile droplets evaporation dynamics has been studied for more than
half a century, the scientific community struggles with the creation of an accurate quantitative …

The evaporation characteristics of sessile water droplets on smooth hydrophobic and
structured superhydrophobic heated surfaces are experimentally investigated. Droplets …

We report a simple, inexpensive, rapid, and one-step method for the fabrication of a stable
and biocompatible superhydrophobic and superhemophobic surface. The proposed surface …
