The effect of surface roughness on claw and adhesive hair performance in the dock beetle Gastrophysa viridula (2011, background): “Previous authors have investigated the impact of a range of surface profiles, either natural (e.g. Gorb & Gorb, 2009, 2002) or artificial (e.g., Gorb, 2001; Peressadko & Gorb, 2004; Stork, 1980; Voigt et al., 2008).”
Effects of surface topography and chemistry of Rumex obtusifolius leaves on the attachment of the beetle Gastrophysa viridula (2009, background): “These structures, however, differ strongly in their attachment ability to surfaces of various geometry and physicochemical properties (Stork, 1980; Gorb, 2001; Betz, 2002; Peressadko & Gorb, 2004; Voigt et al., 2008).”
