Modeling and Optimization of Superhydrophobic Condensation (2013, background): “This phenomenon is attributed to surface structuring, which enhances the hydrophobicity, and thereby decreases droplet pinning to the surface [13].”
Underwater breathing: the mechanics of plastron respiration (2008, background): “While metastable Cassie states may arise (Lafuma & Quéré 2003; Cao et al. 2007), the general criterion for a Cassie state is that it be energetically † Present address: Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB T6G 2G8, Canada. favourable relative to the wetted…”
Superhydrophobic surfaces: a review on fundamentals, applications, and challenges (2018, background): “The contact angle of water can be increased up to 175 if such solid surfaces are rough, making superhydrophobic behavior.(19) Understanding the wetting behavior of a water drop on a solid surface is the basis for designing a superhydrophobic surface.”
