When the going gets rough – studying the effect of surface roughness on the adhesive abilities of tree frogs [PDF]
, 2016 Tree frogs need to adhere to surfaces of various roughnesses in their natural habitats; these include bark, leaves and rocks. Rough surfaces can alter the effectiveness of their toe pads, due to factors such as a change of real contact area and abrasion

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Curvature‐tuned auxetic lattices are designed, fabricated, and mechanically characterized to reveal how geometric curvature governs stretchability, stress redistribution, and Poisson's ratio evolution. Photoelastic experiments visualize stress pathways, while hyperelastic simulations quantify deformation mechanics.

Introduction : Virtually perfect security (transcript of discussion) [PDF]
, 2014 “Virtually Perfect Security” is an attempt to tie together three slightly different interlocking strands. The first is the fact that although we talk about security as if it were some sort of metaphysical property (so that a system is either secure or ...
