Biomimetics applies principles and strategies abstracted from biological systems to
engineering and technological design. With a huge potential for innovation, biomimetics …

Biologically inspired engineering design uses analogies to biological systems to develop
solutions for engineering problems. We conducted a study of biologically inspired design in …

Systems found in nature provide a large database of strategies and mechanisms that can be
implemented in biomimetic designs. Although several biomimetic design strategies are …

Biomimetics, as the transfer of strategies from biology to technology, is an emerging
research area and has led to significant concepts over the past decades. The development …

In bio-inspired design, the concept of'function'allows engineers and designers to move
between biological models and human applications. Abstracting a problem to general …

Biologically inspired design (BID) is an emerging field of research with increasing
achievements in engineering for design and problem solving. Its economic, societal, and …

Biologically inspired design (BID) can be viewed as an example of analogy-based design.
Existing models of analogy-based design do not fully account for the gen eration of complex …

This paper discusses the approach of biomimetic design in architecture applied to the theme
of growth in biology by taking two exemplary research projects at the intersection of arts and …

We present the BioM Innovation Database, the first of its kind containing detailed information
about global biomimetic activity. We present a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the …

Abstract At Georgia Tech in 2005, we developed an interdisciplinary undergraduate
semester-long course, biologically inspired design (BID), co-taught each year by faculty from …
