This project aims to develop active, switchable three-dimensional surface structures inspired by nature. The focus is on creating responsive materials that can adapt their adhesion properties, with potential applications in robotics and medical devices.
Nature has, in the course of evolution, found many fascinating solutions to “engineering problems”.
The proposed work aims at three-dimensional (3D) surface structures inspired by insects, spiders and geckoes.
Based on the PI’s earlier work on passive structures, the new challenge addressed by this interdisciplinary project is to design and investigate active, switchable 3D micropatterns, whose adhesion and touch can be tuned at will and modified on demand.
The resulting features will bend or ti…
