Detachment Control Analysis for Nanofabricated Adhesive Mimicking Gecko Foot-Hairs
The power assumption is costly to apply external forces with respect to the detachment control of nanofabricated adhesive mimicking gecko foot-hairs. With a purpose of low power consumption and high efficiency, this paper describe an implement in which the array is designed to slant to a certain angle before applying external pull-off force in reference to the detachment mechanism of geckos' toes. In the paper also includes the analysis of the influence on external pull-off force from different parameter settings of the array and different array deformations due to the deformation of functional materials. Finally the paper justifies the approach is totally applicable with the comparison of the pull-off forces in different ways
