Hydrophobic textured surfaces are studied for their low wettability and their capacity to create a 'slippery' fluid on the surface during lubrication. To this end, the flow between two parallel surfaces is numerically addressed by computing…

We investigate the behavior of the slip length in Newtonian liquids subject to planar shear bounded by substrates with mixed boundary conditions. The upper wall, consisting of a homogenous surface of finite or vanishing slip, moves at a…
Lubricant-impregnated surfaces (LIS) and superhydrophobic surfaces (SHSs) are known to passively reduce drag over a surface, which, with a suitable design such as the ribbed texture, can also steer flows anisotropically. Analytical…

Some fluids exhibit anomalously low friction when flowing against a certain solid wall. To recover the viscosity of a bulk fluid, slip at the wall is usually postulated. On a macroscopic level, a large slip length can be explained as a…
In many macroscopic dynamic wetting problems, it is assumed that the macroscopic interface is quasistatic, and the dissipation appears only in the region close to the contact line. When approaching the moving contact line, a microscopic…
