Bioinspired fibrillar adhesives: a review of analytical models and experimental evidence for adhesion enhancement by surface patterns
Fibrillar structures are found on the attachment pads of insects and small reptiles. These structures enable exquisite conformation to rough surfaces, increase the number of van der Waals interactions between the structure and the target surface, and thus enhance adhesion. Biomimetic adhesives repli...
