These are the design files for the biomimetic maple samaras introduced in "Wind dispersal of natural and biomimetic maple samaras" by Gary K. Nave, Jr., Nathaniel Hall, Katrina Somers, Brock Davis, Hope Gruszewski, Craig Powers, Michael Collver, David G. Schmale III, and Shane D. Ross [under review]. In the study, 3D-printed artificial samaras were introduced, which mimic both Norway maple and silver maple samaras. Here, we provide the 3D models for these artificial samaras, as AutoDesk Inventor files (.ipt), as standard 3D files (.stl), and as 3D-printer instructions (.gcode).
NOTE: The .gcode was developed using Cura for an Ultimaker 3D printer with PLA as Material 1 and PVA as Material 2.
