Gecko-Like Dry Adhesive Surfaces and Their Applications: A Review
Journal of Bionic Engineering, 2021 Gecko has the ability to climb flexibly on various natural surfaces because of its fine layered adhesion system of foot, which has motivated researchers to carry out a lot of researches on it.

Direct evidence of acid-base interactions in gecko adhesion
Science Advances, 2021 Direct investigation of gecko setae-substrate contact provides clear evidence for acid-base interactions in gecko adhesion. While it is generally accepted that van der Waals (vdW) forces govern gecko adhesion, several studies indicate contributions from ...

Prey size preference in the tokay gecko (Gekko gecko)
Behaviour, 2023 Abstract The optimal foraging theory posits that animals aim to maximize energy intake while minimizing predation and handling costs during foraging. Most observed animal behaviour supports this theory, but occasional deviations provide insights into the ecological factors that shape foraging decisions. We tested prey-size preference using a two-choice
