Laser-made surface repels nearly any liquid, even after fivefold stretching

Researchers from North Carolina State University have used laser ablation to create ultra-stretchable, superomniphobic materials without the use of harsh chemical solvents. The materials—which are ...

A Remark on the Fractional Integral Operators and the Image Formulas of Generalized Lommel–Wright Function

In this paper, the operators of fractional integration introduced by Marichev-Saigo-Maeda involving Appell's function F 3 (·) are applied, and several new image formulas of generalized Lommel–Wright ...
