Surface roughness rather than surface chemistry essentially affects insect adhesion
The attachment ability of ladybird beetles Coccinella septempunctata was systematically investigated on eight types of surface, each with different chemical and topographical properties. The results of traction force tests clearly demonstrated that chemical surface properties, such as static/dynamic de-wettability of water and oil caused by specific chemical compositions, had no significant eff...
متن کاملSurface roughness effect on copper-alumina adhesion
The surface roughness of the substrate itself could play an important role for the bonding at the interface. In this paper, a correlation of the surface roughness of a rigid alumina substrate and its 2D model of estimated surface area has been studied using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). With rougher surface, the adhesive strength between a deposited copper film and the alumina substrate is hig...
متن کاملHow direction of illumination affects visually perceived surface roughness.
We examined visual estimation of surface roughness using random, computer-generated, three-dimensional (3D) surfaces rendered under a mixture of diffuse lighting and a punctate source. The angle between the tangent to the plane containing the surface texture and the direction to the punctate source was varied from 50 to 70 deg across lighting conditions. Observers were presented with pairs of s...
متن کاملEffect of surface roughness on adhesion of graphene membranes
A theoretical model is presented to predict how the surface roughness may affect the adhesion between graphene membranes and their substrates. The bending modulus, which increases drastically from monolayer to multilayered graphene, plays an important role in the transition from conformal to non-conformal morphology of the graphene membranes on a corrugated surface. As such, the measurable adhe...
متن کاملAdhesion as an interplay between particle size and surface roughness.
Surface roughness plays an important role in the adhesion of small particles. In this paper we have investigated adhesion as a geometrical effect taking into account both the particle size and the size of the surface features. Adhesion is studied using blunt model particles on surfaces up to 10 nm root-mean-square (RMS) roughness. Measurements with particles both smaller and larger than surface...
