Many organisms in nature thrive in intricate habitats through their unique bio-adhesive
surfaces, facilitating tasks such as capturing prey and reproduction. It's important to note that …

In nature, many organisms are able to accommodate a complex living environment by
developing biological wet adhesive surfaces with unique functions such as fixation and …

Bioadhesives such as tissue adhesives, hemostatic agents, and tissue sealants have gained
increasing popularity in different areas of clinical operations during the last three decades …

A capillary surface is an interface between two fluids whose shape is determined primarily
by surface tension. Sessile drops, liquid bridges, rivulets, and liquid drops on fibers are all …

Many organisms have attachment organs with excellent functions, such as adhesion,
clinging, and grasping, as a result of biological evolution to adapt to complex living …

Inspired by the nanoconcave top of epidermal cells on tree frogs' toe pads, an array of
composite micropillars with nanopits on the surface (CPp) has been designed. Polystyrene …

Many insect species reversibly adhere to surfaces by combining contact splitting (contact
formation via fibrillar contact elements) and wet adhesion (supply of liquid secretion via …

Hypothesis 'Bridge splitting'is considered in the case of capillary adhesion: a fixed total
volume of liquid is split into multiple capillary bridges. Previous studies have shown that …

We study the interaction between capillary forces and deformation in the context of a
deformable capillary adhesive: a clamped, tense membrane is adhered to a rigid substrate …

Quantifying the response of marine mussel plaque attachment on wet surfaces remains a
significant challenge to a mechanistic understanding of plaque adhesion. Here, we …
