- This paper reported the pilot work used in the preparation of the funded EPSRC project “Lubricating Channel and Tube Flows - Fluid Sheathing using Textured Walls” in collaboration between Nottingham Trent, Northumbria and Durham universities ((EP/L026341/1; EP/L026899/1; EP/L026619/1, joint value £753k). A pair of subsequent papers went on to use the two different materials techniques developed in this article: one reported drag reduction properties of superhydrophobic mesh pipes (doi:10.1088/2051-672X/aa793b) and was selected as one of the journal’s 2017 highlights while the other described a spray-coating for superhydrophobic flexible materials (doi:10.1088/1748-3190).
