In-situ characterization of the mechanical behavior of geckos spatula has been carried out in detail using multi-mode AFM system. Combining successful application of a novel AFM mode, i.e. Harmonix microscopy, the more detail elastic properties of spatula is brought to light. The results obtained show the variation of the mechanical properties on the hierarchical level of a seta, even for the different locations, pad and stalk of the spatula. A model, which has been validated using the existing experimental data and phenomena as well as theoretical predictions for geckos adhesion, crawling and self-cleaning of spatulae, is proposed in this paper. Through contrast of adhesive and craw ability of the gecko on the surfaces with different surface roughness, and measurement of the surface adhesive behaviors of Teflon, the most effective adhesion of the gecko is more dependent on the intrinsic properties of the surface which is adhered.

AbstractTernary TiAl-base alloys containing Cr have been studied, using rapidsolidification processed materials. The mechanical behavior has been characterized and related to other results on microstructure, site occupancy, phase stability, and deformation mode. It was found that Cr additions enhance the plasticity of duplex γ+a2 alloys, but not single-phase alloys. The ductilization effect of Cr is partially due to its ability to occupy Al lattice sites and modify the Ti-Al bond. It is also partially due to its ability to promote twin formation, by modifying the Al partitioning and therefore the a2/γ volume ratio in transformed regions.

The cyclic and compressive mechanical behavior of ultra-thin sheet metals was experimentally investigated. A novel transparent wedge device was designed and fabricated to prevent the buckling of thin sheets under compressive loads, while also allowing full field strain measurements of the specimen using digital imaging methods. Thin brass and stainless steel sheet metal specimens were tested using the micro-wedge device. Experimental results show that the device can be used to delay the onset of early buckling modes of a thin sheet under compression, which is critical in examining the compressive and cyclic mechanical behavior of sheet metals.
