Biomimetics [E-Book] : Bioinspired Hierarchical-Structured Surfaces for Green Science and Technology / by Bharat Bhushan.
This book presents an overview of the general field of biomimetics - lessons from nature. It presents various examples of biomimetics, including roughness-induced superomniphobic surfaces which provide functionality of commercial interest. The major focus in the book is on lotus effect, rose petal e...
