Hierarchical Structure and Fabrication of Functionally Graded Biointerfaces in the Mussel Byssus

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The byssus is a fibrous protein‐based holdfast consisting of mechanically distinct interfaces, which mussels use to anchor their soft living tissue to hard seashore surfaces. Here, multiscale methodologies were used to elucidate the compositional and structural features underlying these functionally graded interfaces and how they are fabricated through

Insect Flight Dynamics and Control

open access: yes44th AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting and Exhibit, 2006
Motivated by recent interest in developing flapping wing micro-air vehicles (MAVs) capable of emulating the flight performance of insects, we describe the state of the art in our understanding of insect flight dynamics. We first outline some general principles of flapping flight dynamics, before presenting a framework for modelling insect flight ...
