Mechanical and elemental characterization of ant mandibles: consequences for bite mechanics

C. L. Klunk, M. Heethoff, J. U. Hammel, S. Gorb, W. Krings

This study examines the mechanical and elemental properties of ant mandibles, showing how regional variations in stiffness affect stress distribution during biting.

Denitrification in foraminifera has ancient origin and is complemented by associated bacteria

C. Woehle, S. Roy, N. Glock, J. Michels, T. Wein, J. Weissenbach, D. Romero, C. Hiebenthal, S. Gorb, J. Schoenfeld, T. Dagan

The paper shows denitrification genes are conserved in foraminifera and their microbiome complements the pathway, revealing an ancient origin of this trait in these organisms.

Computational fluid dynamics provide evidence for a compensatory suction feeding like effect in the predatory strike of dragonfly larvae

A. Koehnsen, M. Brede, S. Gorb, S. Buesse

The paper uses computational fluid dynamics to show that dragonfly larvae's prehensile labial mask shapes create low-pressure areas, mimicking suction feeding to aid in prey capture.

Sand throwing in a pit-building antlion larva from a soil mechanical perspective

S. Buesse, T. Buescher, L. Heepe, S. Gorb, H. H. Stutz

The paper investigates antlion pit construction mechanics, showing sand throwing maintains trap stability and prevents self-burial.

Hunting with catapults: the predatory strike of the dragonfly larva

S. Buesse, A. Koehnsen, H. Rajabi, S. Gorb

The paper reveals a synchronized dual-catapult system in dragonfly larvae that powers their predatory strike, challenging the hydraulic pressure hypothesis and proposing a novel biomechanical mechanism.

The glue produced by Drosophila melanogaster for pupa adhesion is universal

F. Borne, A. Kovalev, S. Gorb, V. Courtier-Orgogozo

The paper tests the adhesive properties of Drosophila melanogaster pupal glue and finds it adheres strongly to various substrates with similar pull-off forces regardless of contact area.
