Fibrillar adhesion with no clusterisation: Functional significance of material gradient along adhesive setae of insects
It has been recently demonstrated that adhesive tarsal setae of beetles possess material gradients along their length. These gradients presumably represent an evolutionary optimization enhancing the adaptation to rough surfaces while simultaneously preventing clusterisation of the setae by lateral c...
