Rough-surface shadowing of self-affine random rough surfaces [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Quantitative Spectroscopy and Radiative Transfer, 2007
Light scattering from self-affine homogeneous isotropic random rough surfaces is studied using the ray-optics approximation. Numerical methods are developed to accelerate the first-order scattering simulations from surfaces represented as single-connected single-valued random fields, and to store the results of the simulations into a numerical ...

Influence of Surface Roughness on Superhydrophobicity [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 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 leaf, have hierarchically structured surface roughness which is optimized for superhydrophobicity ...
