Design of robust superhydrophobic surfaces [PDF]
Nature, 2020 The ability of superhydrophobic surfaces to stay dry, self-clean and avoid biofouling is attractive for applications in biotechnology, medicine and heat transfer1-10. Water droplets that contact these surfaces must have large apparent contact angles (greater than 150 degrees) and small roll-off angles (less than 10 degrees).

Change in drag, apparent slip and optimum air layer thickness for laminar flow over an idealised superhydrophobic surface [PDF]
, 2013 Analytic results are derived for the apparent slip length, the change in drag and the optimum air layer thickness of laminar channel and pipe flow over an idealised superhydrophobic surface, i.e. a gas layer of constant thickness retained on a wall.
