Bio-inspired Structured Adhesives: Biological Prototypes, Fabrication, Tribological Properties, Contact Mechanics, and Novel Concepts By Dr. Lars Heepe, Longjian Xue, Prof. Dr. Stanislav N. GorbEnglish | PDF | 2017 | 357 Pages | ISBN : 3319591134 | 13.84 MB
This book deals with the adhesion, friction and contact mechanics of living organisms. Further, it presents the remarkable adhesive abilities of the living organisms which inspired the design of novel micro- and nanostructured adhesives that can be used in various applications, such as climbing robots, reusable tapes, and biomedical bandages.
