It is a fact that Artificial Intelligence (e.g., Deep Learning, Internet of Things, Satelite Images are widely used to support and enhance the productivity of the Agricultural sector (AS) in our days. Such an intrusion of modern technologies in farming is calling for the employment of Intelligent Anomaly Detection Algorithms, that can offer early ...

Metal Matrix Composites for Sustainable Lotus-Effect Surfaces
Langmuir, 2011The lotus effect involving roughness-induced superhydrophobicity is a way to design nonwetting, self-cleaning, omniphobic, icephobic, and antifouling surfaces. However, such surfaces require micropatterning, which is extremely vulnerable to even small wear rates.

Superhydrophobic Surfaces: Beyond Lotus Effect
2012The term of lotus effect represents the superhydrophobic property of lotus leaves. The super water repellency endows self-cleaning function to lotus leaves, on which dirt particles are easily removed by raindrops. This phenomenon generates increasing interest for both fundamental research and practical applications.

Effects of system parameters on making aluminum alloy lotus
Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2006In the present article, stable biomimetic superhydrophobic surfaces on aluminum alloy are obtained by wet chemical etching following modification with crosslinked silicone elastomer, perfluorononane (C9F20), and perfluoropolyether (PFPE), respectively.

Lotus Effect Surfaces in Nature
2012Many biological surfaces are known to be superhydrophobic and self-cleaning with low adhesion/low drag. They also exhibit antifouling properties. In this chapter, various plant leaves, their roughness, and wax coatings in relation to their hydrophobic/hydrophilic and self-cleaning properties (Bhushan and Jung, 2011) will be discussed.

Biologist (London, England), 2001
A micro-relief of wax encrustation or outgrowths of epidermal cells imparts a property to most leaf surfaces which makes them self-cleaning when rain drops pass over them. Fungi, lichens and algae may evade this self-cleaning mechanism and take up residence on the leaf surface.
