Liquid-infused surfaces (or lubricant-infused surfaces)(LIS) are a new class of functional
materials introduced in 2011. Their exceptional properties have earned them a place at the …

The phenomenon of droplet bouncing on superhydrophobic surfaces has received
extensive attention in the academic and industrial fields, as it is critical for various …

Droplet impact onto liquid pools is a canonical scenario relevant to numerous natural
phenomena and industrial processes. However, despite their ubiquity, multi-fluid systems …

Seaweed and fish have slippery outer surfaces because of the secretion of a layer of mucus.
The hydrodynamics over a three-dimensional lubricant-infused slip surface that mimics the …

High-speed droplet impact is of great interest to power generation and aerospace industries
due to the accrued cost of maintenance in steam and gas turbines. The repetitive impacts of …

This study uses a two-phase finite volume method to investigate the dynamics of Newtonian
and non-Newtonian droplets impacting onto hybrid surfaces with various wettabilities. Six …

The interaction of a hollow droplet impacting a solid surface occurs in several applications,
including controllable biomedicine and thermal spray coating. Understanding the physics of …

Liquid impingement erosion has been known as mechanical degradation, where the original
material is removed progressively from a solid surface due to continued exposure to impacts …

When a drop impacts onto a pool of another liquid, the common interface will move down at
a well-defined speed for the first few milliseconds. While simple mechanistic models and …

Droplet impact on a solid surface occurs in many natural phenomena and industrial
applications such as raindrop impact on the ground, drip irrigation, spray cooling, spray …
