When superhydrophobicity can be a drag: Ventilated cavitation and splashing effects in hydrofoil and speed-boat models tests
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Colloids and Surfaces A: Physicochemical and Engineering Aspects"
DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfa.2021.127344
Abstract: Abstract Superhydrophobic surfaces are expected to reduce the hydrodynamic drag on marine vessels due to the lubrication effects of the naturally sustained thin air-layer plastron. By conducting model-tests with a hydrofoil-boat and a speed-boat, we… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.flowmeasinst.2018.10.004
Abstract: Abstract Boat-mounted acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCPs) are commonly used to make both water velocity and discharge measurements. Most ADCPs measure the direction of travel of the water and boat using an internal compass. The… read more here.
