Description:
Article Knowing how moving droplets dissipate energy is important for designing superhydrophobic surfaces, but measuring such small energy losses is challenging. Timonen et al. develop a technique to do this, which monitors freely decaying and resonant oscillations of moving magnetic droplets. Nature Communications doi: 10.1038/ncomms3398 Authors: Jaakko V.I. Timonen, Mika Latikka, Olli Ikkala, Robin H.A. Ras
