Modeling droplets on superhydrophobic surfaces: equilibrium states and transitions.

We present a lattice Boltzmann solution of the equations of motion describing the spreading of droplets on topologically patterned substrates. We apply it to model superhydrophobic behavior on surfaces covered by an array of micrometer-scale posts. We find that the patterning results in a substantia...
