Biomimetics: What can we learn from arachnids?.This book surveys attachment structures and adhesive secretions occurring in this class of animals and discusses the relationships between structure, properties, and function in the context of evolutionary trends, and biomimetic potential. Topics comprise mechanical attachment devices, such as clamps, claws, hooks, spines and wraps, as well as hairy and smooth adhesive pads, nano-fibrils, suction cups, and viscid and solidifying adhesives. Attachment is one of the major types of interactions between an organism and its environment. There are numerous studies that deal with this phenomenon in lizards, frogs, insects, barnacles, mussels and echinoderms, but the second largest class of animals, the Arachnida, was highly neglected so far. The authors demonstrated that most arachnid adhesive structures are highly analogous to those of insects and vertebrates, but there are also numerous unique developments with some intriguing working principles. Because arachnid attachment organs have a very strong potential of technological ideas for the development of new materials and systems, inspirations from biology could also be interesting for a broad range of topics in materials and surface engineering.Biologically-Inspired Systems,2211-0593 ;7EntomologyAnimal anatomyBiomaterialsTribologyCorrosion and anti-corrosivesCoatingsMaterials—SurfacesThin filmsEntomologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L25090Animal Anatomy / Morphology / Histologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L25015Biomaterialshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z13000Tribology, Corrosion and Coatingshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z15000Surfaces and Interfaces, Thin Filmshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z19000Entomology.Animal anatomy.Biomaterials.Tribology.Corrosion and anti-corrosives.Coatings.Materials—Surfaces.Thin films.Entomology.Animal Anatomy / Morphology / Histology.Biomaterials.Tribology, Corrosion and Coatings.Surfaces and Interfaces, Thin Films.574.1Wolff Jonas Oauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1060969Gorb Stanislav Nauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910155315703321Attachment Structures and Adhesive Secretions in Arachnids2516512UNINA
