Published: April 3, 2025

The development of efficient directional liquid transport systems has become a central focus in numerous research and engineering fields. Natural organisms have evolved intricate structures that facilitate the controlled movement liquids on planar surfaces. These natural mechanisms offer insights into creating sustainable, energy-efficient technologies mimic these adaptations. purpose biomimetic is to harness principles found nature design can autonomously manage flow liquids. One core objectives achieve without need for external energy sources or mechanical pumps. In this article, we review typical models with Next, reveal physical mechanism by which surface chemical gradients, wettability geometric gradients synergically drive motion. Then, introduce breakthroughs bionic strategies water harvesting, recent advancements applications. Finally, give conclusion future perspectives transport.
