The mechanical characterization of the legs, fangs, and prosoma in the spider Harpactira curvipes (Pocock 1897)
Abstract The exoskeleton of spiders is the primary structure that interacts with the external mechanical stimuli, thus playing a crucial role in spider life. In particular, fangs, legs, and prosoma are the main rigid structures of the exoskeleton and their properties must be measured to better under...
