Octopuses are the undisputed kings of camouflage. Whereas engineers have learned to mimic the colors, octopuses also match ...

Researchers developed a color-changing material that alters both surface texture and appearance in seconds, inspired by ...

Reporting in ACS Applied Polymer Materials, researchers evaluated seven different textures made up of microscopic-sized cones to see which ones could repel sewage water the best. In sewage pipes, ...

Irregularities present on a surface are often described as surface roughness or texture. These surface textures such as grooves and dimples impart friction, which is the force between two sliding ...

German scientists have investigated the role of surface texturing in perovskite-silicon tandem cells and have found that several new processes offer the ability to etch smaller, more uniform textures ...

Researchers from the University of South Africa have proposed a novel soiling mitigation approach for PV panels by placing non-working textured PV dummies in front of active PV modules. They used ...
