On/off switching of adhesion in gecko‐inspired adhesives
Abstract In this study, the adhesion‐detachment behaviour of a gecko‐inspired adhesive pad was investigated to understand the on/off switching mechanisms of adhesion in gecko feet. A macroscopic spatula model was fabricated using silicone rubber, and adhesion tests combining lateral sliding and vert...
