Drop impact on hairy surfaces

We investigate the impact of liquid drops on millimeter-scale hairy surfaces. By varying the speed of the drop, the spacing of the hairs, and the viscosity of the liquid, we observe a variety of behaviors. In some cases, the liquid drop can remain on top of the hair after impact, similar to a Cassie...
