Water impacting on superhydrophobic macrotextures by Gauthier, Anaïs, Symon, Sean, Clanet, Christophe, Quéré, David

“…It has been recently shown that the presence of macrotextures on superhydrophobic materials can markedly modify the dynamics of water impacting them, and in…”

Two recipes for repelling hot water by Mouterde, Timothée, Lecointre, Pierre, Lehoucq, Gaëlle, Checco, Antonio, Clanet, Christophe, Quéré, David

“…Although a hydrophobic microtexture at a solid surface most often reflects rain owing to the presence of entrapped air within the texture, it is much more…”

Superhydrophobic frictions by Mouterde, Timothée, Raux, Pascal S., Clanet, Christophe, Quéré, David

“…Contrasting with its sluggish behavior on standard solids, water is extremely mobile on superhydrophobic materials, as shown, for instance, by the continuous…”

The physics of badminton by Cohen, Caroline, Texier, Baptiste Darbois, Quéré, David, Clanet, Christophe

“…The conical shape of a shuttlecock allows it to flip on impact. As a light and extended particle, it flies with a pure drag trajectory. We first study the flip…”

Wave drag on floating bodies by Le Merrer, Marie, Clanet, Christophe, Quéré, David, Raphaël, Élie, Chevy, Frédéric

“…We measure the deceleration of liquid nitrogen drops floating at the surface of a liquid bath. On water, the friction force is found to be about 10 to 100…”
