Résumé
The remarkable tribological attributes of the gecko feet have grown much interest in the field of biomimetic tribology over the past two decades. It has been shown that the complexity of friction and adhesion phenomena made it difficult to transfer these exceptional properties into fully functional smart, dry, micro patterned adhesives. The latter, combined with the relative lack of literature on computational oriented studies on these phenomena, is the motive of the current work. Here, a 2D time-dependent finite element model of friction and adhesion attributed contact of polydimethysiloxane (PDMS) micro flaps with a smooth SiO
