Mechanics of Self-Similar Hierarchical Adhesive Structures Inspired by Gecko Feetgs. The adhesion mechanisms of gecko must be robust enough to function on unknown rough surfaces and easily releasable upon animal movement. In this chapter, we review the robust and releasable adhesion devices used by the gecko. These topics are presented from the point of view of contact mechanics

Soft Tissue to Bone Healing in Rotator Cuff Repairshoulder procedure in the orthopaedic setting, healing of the tendons to bone after surgical repair is unpredictable, with failure rates ranging from 20 to 94%. The high failure rates are likely due to the scar-mediated process that dominates healing in the adult setting, resulting in an attachment

Engineering Graded Tissue Interfacestion, mechanical properties, and biological function. In this chapter, we discuss engineering of tissue interfaces, with an emphasis on scaffold design. An ideal scaffold should be able to accommodate transitions in tissue elements in order to transmit the properties of one tissue to another. Regene

Engineering Fibrous Tissues and Their Interfaces with Bonenjuries, such as tissue grafts, pose problems of donor site morbidity (autografts) or potential for pathogen transfer (allografts). Tissue engineering techniques are being investigated to overcome current clinical challenges to regenerate injured fibrous tissues and their interfaces. This chapter di

ering attachment in the context of schemes observed in natur.Attachment of dissimilar materials in engineering and surgical practice is a perennial challenge. Bimaterial attachment sites are common locations for injury, repeated injury, and mechanical failure. Nature presents several highly effectiv
