SUPERHYDROPHOBIC SURFACES FOR DRAG REDUCTION

Istituto Lombardo - Accademia di Scienze e Lettere - Rendiconti di Scienze, 2014
Properties of superhydrophobic materials are examined in light of their possible use for drag reduction in naval applications. To achieve superhydrophobicity a low-surface-energy material must be structured so as to minimize the liquid-solid interactions.

Laser-induced superhydrophobic surface of 1420 Al–Li alloy: corrosion resistance comparison between grating and grid patterns

Journal of Materials Research and Technology
Based on the strategy of enhancing the metal corrosion resistance through superhydrophobicity, two types of superhydrophobic surfaces—grating (anisotropic) and grid (isotropic) —were successfully fabricated on the surface of 1420 aluminum-lithium (Al–Li)

Degradation of superhydrophobic aluminium overhead line conductor surfaces

High Voltage
It has been shown that noise emissions from HV overhead line conductors can be reduced under rain conditions by making their surfaces superhydrophobic. The working environment makes ensuring the longevity of any treatment a major challenge.

Superhydrophobic surfaces: from fluid mechanics to optics

In this thesis optical diraction was used to study the static and dynamic properties of microscopic liquid-gas interfaces that span between adjacent ridges of a superhydrophobic surface. An observed interference phenomenon at grazing incident angle led to the development of optical gratings with a large spectral bandwidth, and an observed sensitive ...
