Newly observed depinning phenomenon could aid the development of more efficient energy harvesters and help keep next-generation fuel-handling systems safe ...

MIT researchers and AgZen developed a spray technology that boosts droplet retention, reduces pesticide waste, and lowers costs.

The new understanding of this “stick-slip” motion of water over a surface paves ... on a flat plate of Teflon – effectively simulating the movement of droplets over the surface. The team used a ...

Water flowing across surfaces is a ubiquitous phenomenon, from raindrops rolling across leaves to water flowing through pipes in our homes. However, water generating an electrical charge when ...

01. The improvement in droplets sticking to the surface continued at a 0.1 percent, but began to break down beyond that. "Basically, this oil film acts as a way to trap that droplet on the surface ...
