Adhesion Control Method for EMU
Chengshi guidao jiaotong yanjiuObjective Given the high operating speeds, minimal residual acceleration margin, and open-air track conditions of EMU (electric multiple units), as well as the deficiencies in conventional combination correction methods such as poor accuracy in criterion

Controlling wet adhesion with elasticity [PDF]
Soft Matter, 2020 We consider the wet adhesion between two deformable fibers and identify an elastocapillary peeling regime, where the pull-off force remains constant trough debonding and is completely determined by a single dimensionless parameter.

Cadherin‐mediated adhesion takes control
The EMBO Journal, 2022 The formation of a centralised apical membrane initiation site (AMIS) is a key event in epithelial cell polarisation. A recent study by Liang et al demonstrates that AMIS localisation relies on cadherin‐mediated cell adhesion.

Adhesion Control for Micro- and Nanomanipulation [PDF]
ACS Nano, 2011 The adhesion between a micro/nano-object and a microgripper end-effector is an important problem in micromanipulation. Canceling or reducing this force is a great challenge. This force is directly linked to the surface chemical structure of the object and the gripper.

How Microbes Use Force To Control Adhesion [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2020 Microbial adhesion and biofilm formation are usually studied using molecular and cellular biology assays, optical and electron microscopy, or laminar flow chamber experiments. Today, atomic force microscopy (AFM) represents a valuable addition to these approaches, enabling the measurement of forces involved in microbial adhesion at the single-molecule ...

A Tissue Adhesion‐Controllable and Biocompatible Small‐Scale Hydrogel Adhesive Robot
Advanced Materials, 2022 AbstractRecently, the realization of minimally invasive medical interventions on targeted tissues using wireless small‐scale medical robots has received an increasing attention. For effective implementation, such robots should have a strong adhesion capability to biological tissues and at the same time easy controlled detachment should be possible ...

Flii Control: Balancing Migration and Adhesion [PDF]
Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2009 Wound healing in the skin requires a compromise between adhesion and migration. Both processes include modulation of the cytoskeleton, cell-surface receptors, and receptor ligands., In this issue, Kopecki et al. demonstrate that overexpression of Flii, an actin-remodeling protein, impedes wound healing but inhibits hemidesmosome formation. In contrast,
