This review paper examines the possible pathways and possible technologies available that
will help the ship** sector achieve the International Maritime Organization's (IMO) deep …

Nowadays, superhydrophobic surfaces have attracted a lot of interest because of the wide
range of applications in industries. These surfaces can significantly reduce the drag force …

Superhydrophobic materials have been widely reported throughout the scientific literature.
Their properties originate from a highly rough morphology and inherently water repellent …

A significant amount of the fuel consumed by marine vehicles is expended to overcome skin-
friction drag resulting from turbulent boundary layer flows. Hence, a substantial reduction in …

The injection of gas bubbles into a turbulent boundary layer of a liquid phase has multiple
different impacts on the original flow structure. Frictional drag reduction is a phenomenon …

The slippery low-friction surfaces have strong potentials in various applications, including
drag reduction, anti-fouling, and anti-icing, etc. However, conventional low-friction surfaces …

There are many measures for decarbonisation of maritime transport, however only a few of
such measures have been applied in practice. The method for the assessment of the …

Trap** air at the solid–liquid interface is a promising strategy for reducing frictional drag
and desalting water, although it has thus far remained unachievable without perfluorinated …
