Kinetic friction of nonwetting drops

Numerous engineering applications have been proposed to exploit the load-carrying and non-contact nature of noncoalescing and nonwetting systems. One such application is a lab-on-a-chip , or LOC, in which liquid samples would be delivered from point-to-point by sliding over a film of air without...
