When a water droplet strikes a superhydrophobic surface, there may be several to a few tens
of rebounds before it comes to rest. Although this intriguing multiphase flow phenomenon …

Bouncing droplets on solid surfaces is of great significance in diversified applications such
as anti-icing and self-cleaning. It is important to establish a unified model to predict whether …

Many fields would greatly benefit from the realization of the manipulation of droplet impact
behavior by an asymmetric surface structure, such as self-cleaning, anti-icing, inkjet printing …

Water droplets impinging on micro-grooved polydimethylsiloxane surfaces were studied.
Depending on the impact velocity and surface roughness, different phenomena such as no …

Wettability of droplets and droplet impinging on sparse micropillar-arrayed
polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) surfaces were experimentally investigated. For droplets …

Ferrofluids are novel functional materials that have extensively been exploited in fluid-based
management and control systems, and thus underlying the dynamic interactions between …

Hypothesis The impact dynamics of droplets containing nonionic surfactants are dependent
on their molecular weight and concentration. This study investigates the role of these key …

We experimentally investigate microliter-sized water droplet impact on solid and hollow
square micropillared polydimethylsiloxane substrates. Micropillared substrates with different …

Wetting of aqueous sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) droplets on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)
surfaces during evaporation were experimentally studied. After a short-time spontaneous …

The rebound dynamics of double droplets impacting an inclined superhydrophobic surface
decorated with macro-ridges are investigated via lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) …
