Intrusion and extrusion of water in hydrophobic nanopores [PDF]
, 2017 Heterogeneous systems composed of hydrophobic nanoporous materials and water are capable, depending on their characteristics, of efficiently dissipating (dampers) or storing ("molecular springs") energy.

Geometric Interpretation of Surface Tension Equilibrium in Superhydrophobic Systems
Entropy, 2015 Surface tension and surface energy are closely related, although not identical concepts. Surface tension is a generalized force; unlike a conventional mechanical force, it is not applied to any particular body or point.

Determination of contact angle hysteresis of water microdroplets evaporating on hydrolyzed PET foils [PDF]
Acta Montanistica Slovaca, 2013 Moderately hydrophobic surfaces of PET foils were gradually hydrophilized by their immersion in NaOH solutions of increasing concentration. Then, the contact angle and geometric factors of microliter water drops, deposited on these polymer surfaces, were

Reversible electrowetting and trapping of charge: model and experiments
, 1999 We derive a model for voltage-induced wetting, so-called electrowetting, from the principle of virtual displacement. Our model includes the possibility that charge is trapped in or on the wetted surface.
