SUMMARY:Turbulent flows over superhydrophobic surfaces - Chris Fairhall\,

DESCRIPTION:In the quest for drag reduction\, superhydrophobic surfaces ha
 ve recently attracted a growing interest. These superhydrophobic surfaces 
 are rough surfaces that have the ability to entrap pockets of gas on the s
 urface\, essentially allowing the overlying flow to slip over the surface\
 , resulting in a drag reduction. This talk will discuss the common drag re
 duction mechanism that allows surfaces (e.g. superhydrophobic surfaces\, r
 iblets\, permeable media) to reduce drag in turbulent flows\, and how drag
  reduction can be explained by a simple model. Then we will focus on isola
 ting the effects that slip and roughness have on the overlying turbulence 
 of superhydrophobic surfaces.
