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.

Monadic Logic

The first section of this paper is concerned with the intrinsic properties of elementary monadic logic (EM), and characterizations in the spirit of Lindström [2] are given. His proofs do not apply to monadic logic since relations are used, and intrinsic properties of EM turn out to differ in certain ways from those of the elementary logic of relations (i.e., the predicate calculus), which we shall call EL. In the second section we investigate connections between higher-order monadic and polyadic logics.EM is the subsystem of EL which results by the restriction to one-place predicate letters. We omit constants (for simplicity) but take EM to contain identity. Let a type be any finite sequence (possibly empty) of one-place predicate letters. A model M of type has a nonempty universe ∣M∣ and assigns to each predicate letter P of a subset PM of ∣M∣.Let us take a monadic logic L to be any collection of classes of models, called L-classes, satisfying the following:1. All models in a given L-class are of the same type (called the type of the class).2. Isomorphic models lie in the same L-classes.3. If and are L-classes of the same type, then and are L-classes.

AbstractLarge single crystals of ammonium dihydrogen phosphate (ADP) have been grown from solutions of reagent grade materials by means of precisely controlled temperature programs. We have studied the perfection of these crystals by means of double-crystal rocking curves and diffraction topographs. In the course of this study, effects associated with various techniques of sectioning and polishing specimens from these crystals were examined. A combination of string sawing and chemical polishing procedures produced specimens exhibiting the best diffraction characteristics. Results obtained from surfaces so prepared are tentatively taken as being characteristic of the bulk crystal and may be interpreted in terms of longrange strain fields and imaging of both emergent and nonemergent dislocations. In some specimens, regions of 1 cm2 or more have been found to be free of defect images and to have uniform reflectance.The perfection of some specimen pairs and the intrinsic properties of certain reflections suggest their possible application to spectroscopic problems. Some crystal pairs cut parallel to (101) planes have exhibited physical resolving powers of 104 at 8.3 Å; others cut for the 600 reflection have given 4 x 105 at 1,5 Å, These crystals deteriorate on exposure to moist laboratory air and preservation techniques had to be employed.

Necessary And Sufficient

Linear spaces on which both an order and a topology are defined and related in various ways have been studied for some time now. Given an order on a linear space it is sometimes possible to define a useful topology using the order and linear structure. In this note we focus on a special type of space called a linear lattice and determine those lattice properties which are both necessary and sufficient for the existence of a classical norm, called an M-norm, for the lattice. This result is a small step in a program to determine which intrinsic order properties of an ordered linear space are necessary and sufficient for the existence of various given types of topologies for the space. This study parallels, in a certain sense, the study of purely topological spaces to determine intrinsic properties of a topology which make it metrizable and the study of the relation between order and topology on spaces which have no algebraic structure, or. algebraic structures other than a linear one.

Characterization Of Materials

The macroscopic mechanical properties of steel are highly dependent upon microstructure, morphology, and distribution of each phase present. Nanomechanical testing (Depth sensing indentation) provides a straightforward solution for quantitatively characterizing each of these phases because it is very powerful technique for characterization of materials in small volumes. Measuring the intrinsic properties of each phase separately in multiphase materials gives information that is valuable for the development of new materials and for modelling [1]. In this work, depth sensing indentation has been used to reveal mechanical properties of different phases in steel sheets.
