Spring-like biomineralized hard structures : lessons from stomatopods
Stomatopods (mantis shrimps) are aggressive predators that use a pair of ultra-fast raptorial appendages to either strike or catch prey. This remarkable fast movement is driven by a power amplification system comprising components that must be able to repetitively store and release a high amount of...
