Superhydrophobicity on hairy surfaces.
We investigate the wetting properties of surfaces patterned with fine elastic hairs, with an emphasis on identifying superhydrophobic states on hydrophilic hairs. We formulate a 2D model of a large drop in contact with a row of equispaced elastic hairs and, by minimizing the free energy of the model...
