, 2015 We discuss an evaporation-induced wetting transition on superhydrophobic stripes, and show that depending on the elastic energy of the deformed contact line, which determines the value of an instantaneous effective contact angle, two different scenarios ...

Influence of surface roughness on superhydrophobicity [PDF]
, 2006 Superhydrophobic surfaces, with liquid contact angle theta greater than 150 degree, have important practical applications ranging from self-cleaning window glasses, paints, and fabrics to low-friction surfaces. Many biological surfaces, such as the lotus

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objectives Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a non‐invasive brain stimulation strategy with a demonstrated potential to reinforce the residual pathways after a spinal cord injury (SCI). A preclinically tested high‐frequency (15 Hz) rTMS (15 Hz rTMS) protocol was shown to induce corticospinal tract axon regeneration growth ...

Forced spreading over superhydrophobic and copper surfaces
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 Dynamic spreading over superhydrophobic and copper surfaces was studied experimentally under the condition of contact line movement with speed greater than 1 mm/sec.

Is superhydrophobicity robust with respect to disorder?
, 2013 We consider theoretically the Cassie-Baxter and Wenzel states describing the wetting contact angles for rough substrates. More precisely, we consider different types of periodic geometries such as square protrusions and disks in 2D, grooves and ...

A comparison of slip, disjoining pressure, and interface formation models for contact line motion through asymptotic analysis of thin two-dimensional droplet spreading [PDF]
, 2014 The motion of a contact line is examined, and comparisons drawn, for a variety of models proposed in the literature. Pressure and stress behaviours at the contact line are examined in the prototype system of quasistatic spreading of a thin two ...

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.Objectives This study aims to develop hip morphology‐based radiographic hip osteoarthritis (RHOA) risk prediction models and investigates the added predictive value of hip morphology measurements and the generalizability to different populations. Methods We combined data from nine prospective cohort studies participating in the World COACH consortium ...

Journal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology, 2020 Estimating the contact angle in very complex rock pores presents some challenges to accurately identify the fluid–rock contact surface. This work presents a methodology to estimate the contact angle formed by the brine–rock and the brine–oil interfaces ...

The equilibrium contact angle of ammonia-stainless steel interface
Results in Engineering, 2022 The knowledge of the wettability at the interface of different liquids and solid surfaces must be replenished in steps with material science. Wettability is a critical property in technologies where the interaction of fluid and solid substances is part ...

Knee crepitus and osteoarthritis features in young adults following traumatic knee injury
Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.Objective This study explored the association between knee crepitus and the presence, and worsening, of structural osteoarthritis features and self‐reported outcomes in young adults following traumatic knee injury. Methods One‐year following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), 112 participants (41 female participants; median age 28 years)
