• The effect of surface roughness on claw and adhesive hair performance in the dock beetle Gastrophysa viridula (2011, background): “While attempts have been made to include claw-like spines into biomimetic climbing robots (e.g., Asbeck et al., 2006; Spenko et al., 2008), a combination of adhesive and interlocking devices will be essential for a robot to be able to climb a wide variety of surfaces.”
