Jan 1, 2019 · The design attributes of snake skin scales were studied via the shed skin of species Python Regius. Snake skin design, especially on ventricular side, consists of hexagonal scale patterns with denticulations and fibrils as hierarchical structures of the design.

The ball python (Python regius), also called the royal python, is a python species native to West and Central Africa, where it lives in grasslands, shrublands and open forests. This nonvenomous constrictor is the smallest of the African pythons, growing to …

Jul 26, 2010 · In this work we apply a multi scale surface characterization approach to study surface design features of the Python regius that are beneficial to design high quality lubricating surfaces (such as those obtained through plateau honing).

In this study, we therefore evaluated two types of housing systems for ball pythons (Python regius) by considering the welfare aspect animal behavior. In Part 1 of the study, ball pythons (n = 35) were housed individually in a conventional rack system.

In this work we apply a multi-scale surface characterization approach to study surface design features of the Python regius. The focus is on those features that are typically used to assess the performance of high quality lubricating surfaces (such as those obtained through plateau honing).

Sep 2, 2013 · In this work, we draw a comparison between industrial surfaces and reptilian surfaces. We chose the Python regius species as a bio-analogue with a deterministic surface. We first study the structural make up of the ventral scales of …

Jul 26, 2010 · In this work we apply a multi scale surface characterization approach to study surface design features of the Python regius that are beneficial to design high quality lubricating surfaces...

Species overview page for Ball Python (Python regius) containing basic info, useful links, temperature data, season data, microhabitats, biomes, Ferguson zones and distribution map

Breeding the Ball python, Python regius (Shaw 1802) under natural conditions. Litteratura Serpentium 14 (3): 78 - get paper here Tinkle, Donald W.;Gibbons, J. Whitfield 1977.

In this work, we apply a multi-scale surface characterization approach to probe the design features of shed skins obtained from a Ball Python (Python Regius). Such a species is of tribological interest because of its locomotion taking place within a non-breakable boundary lubrication regime.
