Biohybrid Crawling Robot With Spiral‐Spring Backbone and Inclined Legs for Enhanced Locomotion
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.We present a biohybrid crawling robot integrating a muscle ring with a flexible skeleton combining two complementary structural elements. The spiral‐spring backbone enables large‐amplitude bending without compromising axial stability, while outward‐inclined legs with unequal front–rear lengths effectively convert deformation into directional strides ...

Cellulose Surface Modification Effects on Equilibrium and Non‐Equilibrium Wetting by Water
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Molecular dynamics simulations of nanometer‐sized water droplets spreading on cellulose substrates show strong effects from surface chemistry on both equilibrium contact angles and spreading dynamics. ABSTRACT Chemical modification is an important route to tuning interactions between nanocellulose and its surrounding media. Specifically, it affects the

Shock isolation systems incorporating Coulomb friction
, 2012 This study investigates a novel approach to the problem of shock isolation. The questions considered are whether friction produces a better performance in terms of reduced response during a shock compared to viscous damping and a lower residual response ...

How does kinetic friction depend on the contact surface area of a solid? [PDF]
, 2013 This essay studies the friction phenomenon to answer the question: “how does kinetic friction depend on the contact surface area of a solid?” The object of research, kinetic friction, has been modified from the sole term “friction” to narrow down the ...

Culinary Chemistry as a Platform for Interfacial Materials Design
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Culinary processes control interfaces through heating, shear, gelation, and molecular transport. This Review connects selected gastronomic examples with food‐derived nanomaterials, plasmonic sensing, anthocyanin photovoltaics, and intelligent packaging. Original agar‐based plasmonic films illustrate the proposed translation.

Contact Mechanics and Friction of Elastic Solids on Hard and Rough Substrates
, 2012 This thesis presented an experimental study of contact mechanics and rubber friction. These are topics of huge importance in Nature and in technology. Despite its importance and the theoretical and experimental effort carried out, contact mechanics and rubber friction are still not well understood t day.

Transactions of the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, 1969 A study was made of surface roughness effects on dry friction between two metals, assuming that the asperities are cones of slopes which depend on the surface roughness. Theoretical expressions were derived for ploughing, adhesion and total friction coefficients of cones, spheres and aquare pyramids ploughing along the soft metal surface.
