The research explores the relationship between surface micro-geometry and the mechanical properties of materials. By mimicking natural surfaces, it aims to establish guidelines for designing surfaces with specific anti-adhesion and anti-contamination characteristics, benefiting various engineering applications.
Human beings have long tried to learn from and mimic nature. A good example is the successful mimicry, by means of nanotechnology, of the ‘lotus leaf effect’ in many applications requiring self-cleaning from skyscrapers, machine tools’ work surfaces and even to clothes.
Surface micro and nano-topography (finish, texture) obviously affects the performance of many engineered and natural systems.
The proposed research is aimed at establishing functionally useful correlations between surface micro-g…
