Droplet evaporation is a natural phenomenon and a topic of wide concern in various
research fields. Droplet-based biosensors have attracted much attention due to their …

Human health risks caused by PM2. 5 raise awareness to the role of trees as bio-filters of
urban air pollution, but not all species are equally capable of filtering the air. The objectives …

Liquid marbles (LMs) are droplets encapsulated with powders presenting varied roughness
and wettability. These LMs have garnered a lot of attention due to their dual properties of …

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 …

Great attention has been paid to superhydrophobic surface with tunable water adhesion
behaviors, but many challenges still remain for developing a surface with accurate regional …

In this article, we provide a perspective overview of the iconic properties, recent application-
oriented research, and future commercialization opportunities of thin film metallic glasses …

Urban trees and forests are widely used as biological filters to combat the airborne
particulate matter (PM). Precipitation washing PM off from plants is regarded as filter …

Abstract Hypothesis The Lucas-Washburn (LW) equation is the classical theory to describe
the dynamics of spontaneous imbibition in single micro-channels and micro-scale porous …

In this study, evaporation of sessile water droplets on hot micro-structured superhydrophobic
surfaces is experimentally and theoretically investigated. Water droplets of 4 µL are placed …

The evaporation of water droplets placed on heated hydrophilic, hydrophobic, and
superhydrophobic substrates is numerically investigated. Simplified analytical models for …
