Boundary flow on end-grafted PEG brushes
Published 2015-12-18We investigated the boundary conditions for flow of a Newtonian liquid over soft interfaces by measuring hydrodynamic drainage forces with colloid probe atomic force microscopy in a viscous liquid. The investigated soft ...Open AccessArticle -
Patterned polymer coatings increase the efficiency of dew harvesting
Published 2017-02-22Micropatterned polymer surfaces, possessing both topographical and chemical characteristics, were prepared on three-dimensional copper tubes and used to capture atmospheric water. The micropatterns mimic the structure on ...Open AccessArticle -
Waterborne all-polymeric colloidal 'raspberry' particles with controllable hydrophobicity and water droplet adhesion properties
Published 2016-01-29Wepresent a superhydrophobic coating made fromwaterborne, all-polymeric ‘raspberry’ particles, composed of a micrometric spherical core decorated with a corona of nanometric spherical particles. As-cast particles produced ...Open AccessArticle -
Reef Sedimentary Accretion Model (ReefSAM): Understanding coral reef evolution on Holocene time scales using 3D stratigraphic forward modelling
Published 2017-09-01A detailed understanding of the development of coral reefs and their internal structure has important applications for predicting future reef trajectories in light of climate changes, petroleum exploration and reconstructing ...Open AccessArticle -
Zero-point energy conservation in classical trajectory simulations: Application to H2CO
Published 2018-05-21A new approach for preventing zero-point energy (ZPE) violation in quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) simulations is presented and applied to H2CO “roaming” reactions. Zero-point energy may be problematic in roaming reactions ...Open AccessArticle
