Fog Harps: Elastocapillarity, Droplet Dynamics, and Optimization
… with a focus on optimization. First, we analyze wire tangling in a harp due to capillary forces, resulting in a mathematical model that is able to predict when wire tangling will occur. Second, we systematically vary three key parameters of a fog harp (wire material, center-to-center wire pitch, …

Advanced Fog Harvesting Techniques
… assemblies that are prone to elastocapillary wire tangling. To overcome these challenges, this chapter introduces manufacturable and anti-tangling Fog Harps that maintain the record fog harvesting efficiency (~17%) achieved by optimized scale-model designs, while enabling practical deployment. …
