0 the practice of making technological and industrial design copy natural processes: --
So, too, an engineer copying working elements of nature (practicing biomimicry), is treating nature as a database of solutions to problems.
He also says that he looks to the animal kingdom for design, using what's called biomimicry.
Biomimicry may also provide design methodologies and techniques to optimize engineering products and systems.
Biomimicry, they argue, is an effective strategy to restore basic efficiency.
However, terms like biomimicry or biomimetics are more preferred in the technology world in efforts to avoid confusion between the medical term bionics.
Regenerative design is the biomimicry of ecosystems that provide for all human systems to function as a closed viable ecological economics system for all industry.
For example, bioadhesives secreted by microbes and by marine molluscs and crustaceans are being researched with a view to biomimicry.
The sculptures suggest a biomimicry-related language ready to receive and transmit signals and information.
