1. Numerical analysis of coalescence-induced jumping droplets on superhydrophobic surfaces
Sammanfattning : Bio-inspired superhydrophobic surfaces are used in numerous technological applications due to their self-cleaning ability. One of the several mechanisms reported in literature and responsible for self-cleaning is the phenomenon of coalescence-induced jumping of droplets from such surfaces. LÄS MER
2. Superhydrophobic Cellulosic Surfaces : Preparation and Characterisation of Superhydrophobic Cellulosic Surfaces. Investigation of the Free Energy Barriers Between Cassie-Baxter and Wenzel States of Wetting
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
3. Hydrophobic surfaces: Effect of surface structure on wetting and interaction forces
Sammanfattning : The use of hydrophobic surfaces is important for many processes both in nature and industry. Interactions between hydrophobic species play a key role in industrial applications such as water-cleaning procedures and pitch control during papermaking but they also give information on how to design surfaces like hydrophobic mineral pigments.

4. Toward Anti-icing and De-icing Surfaces : Effects of Surface Topography and Temperature
Sammanfattning : Icing severely affects society, especially in the Nordic countries. Iceaccumulation can result in critical performance problems and safetyconcerns for instance in road, air and sea transportation, transmissionlines, marine and offshore structures, wind turbines and heat exchangers.

5. Fundamentals of Wetting and Mechanical Durability of Superhydrophobic Coatings
Sammanfattning : In paper I the friction between three different superhydrophobic surfaces and water drops were investigated using high‑speed video. The surfaces were two based on a hydrophobic wax and the third was the leaf of a Lotus (Nelumbo Nucifera). The acceleration of water drops was measured as a function of drop size and surface inclination. LÄS MER
