recommendations! Published in 2020 at "Advanced Materials Interfaces"

DOI: 10.1002/admi.202001441

Abstract: Droplet manipulation on solid surfaces is a key technique involved in a variety of applications ranging from self‐cleaning coatings to micro total analysis systems, and thus has been extensively investigated over the recent years. Here,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-85765-7

Abstract: How human respiratory physiology and the transport phenomena associated with inhaled airflow in the upper airway proceed to impact transmission of SARS-CoV-2, leading to the initial infection, stays an open question. An answer can help… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.122.074503

Abstract: We demonstrate "bendotaxis," a novel mechanism for droplet self-transport at small scales. A combination of bending and capillarity in a thin channel causes a pressure gradient that, in turn, results in the spontaneous movement of… read more here.
