- Dry friction of microstructured polymer surfaces inspired by snake skin.
Baum MJ, Heepe L, Fadeeva E et al. · Beilstein journal of nanotechnology · 2014-07 · open access
The microstructure investigated in this study was inspired by the anisotropic microornamentation of scales from the ventral body side of the California King Snake (Lampropeltis getula californiae). Frictional properties of snake-inspired microstructured polymer surface (SIMPS) made of epoxy resin…

- Friction behavior of a microstructured polymer surface inspired by snake skin.
Baum MJ, Heepe L, Gorb SN · Beilstein journal of nanotechnology · 2014-01 · open access
The aim of this study was to understand the influence of microstructures found on ventral scales of the biological model, Lampropeltis getula californiae, the California King Snake, on the friction behavior. For this purpose, we compared snake-inspired anisotropic microstructured surfaces to other…

- Chemosensory responses to chemical and visual stimuli in five species of colubrid snakes
Anthony J. Saviola, Valerie J. McKenzie, David Chiszar · Acta Herpetologica · 2012-04 · open access
Snakes utilize chemical and visual stimuli during predation, however the emphasis on these cues and which cues are used to initiate predation varies among species. For example, rattlesnakes using the ambush strategy rely on chemical cues to locate an ambush station, then visual and thermal cues to…
