A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances; DOI 10.29026/oea.2022.210052 overviews fabricating complex hierarchical biomimetic patterns with the use of novel spatiotemporally tailored interfering ...

Ice on an aircraft’s surfaces can be a hazard: it increases drag and fuel consumption, disrupts aerodynamic flows, and decreases lift, impairing an aircraft’s ability to fly safely. Researchers at the ...

While it's important to keep the wings of aircraft ice-free, the application of chemical deicers before takeoff can be problematic. German scientists are working on something that could help, in the ...
