title = "Hybrid Sol-Gel Materials for Aerodynamic Surfaces",
abstract = "Clean smooth surfaces on aircraft wings increase the efficiency of aerodynamics and thus reduce fuel consumption. However, challenges to these surfaces such as ice accretion, insect adhesion and rain erosion negatively affect aerodynamic performance and need to be overcome to implement technologies like hybrid laminar flow control for the next generation of aircraft. The purpose of this overview is to describe the background of fouling media on aerofoil, the current state of art used to mitigate these challenges and potential of hybrid sol-gel technology to be used in this field.",
