Integrating Smart Materials and Adhesion Mechanics for Soft Gripping Mechanisms
… in a cylindrical PDMS pillar can enhance the dry adhesion strength of the pillar to an opposing rigid surface significantly. Here, I investigate three different approaches to enhance the dry adhesion of soft gripping mechanisms integrating smart materials and adhesion mechanics. First, the effect …
