abstract = {Strong adhesion between solids with rough surfaces is only
possible if at least one of the solids is elastically very
soft. Some lizards and spiders are able to adhere (dry
adhesion) and move on very rough vertical surfaces due to
very compliant surface layers on their attachment pads.
Flies, bugs, grasshoppers and tree frogs have less compliant
pad surface layers, and in these cases adhesion to rough
surfaces is only possible because the animals inject a
wetting liquid into the pad - substrate contact area, which
generates a relative long-range attractive interaction due
to the formation of capillary bridges. In this presentation
I will discuss some aspects of wet adhesion for tree frogs
and give some comments related to tire applications.},
