The living natural world has been creating solutions for physical, chemical, and environmental challenges since the early history of the Earth. Bio-Inspired Engineering is a small, humble step toward putting some of the powerful examples of those natural solutions into the hands of engineers and others who are designing our technological world. It is intended to provide them with the power of bio-inspiration, to help them close the gaps between the elegant solutions of nature and the possibilities we can imagine.
In this new engineering text by noted professor Chris Jenkins, you will learn
More and more, engineering design in the future will mimic and adapt the structural and material solutions that nature has evolved over eons to create the robust electronics, energy-efficient housing, and advances in consumer goods that drive the modern technological world. This book shows the first steps down that path.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - About the Book More and more, the patterns and scientific principles of natural living systems are being mimicked and exploited in man-made engineered systems and products. That trend is now starting to appear in the curricula design of engineering schools. This will be the first broad-based introduction to the influence of nature and biological systems in how things are designed and made, from new design paradigms and structural systems to 'self-healing materials' and 'smart' systems and robotics. Presented as a traditional textbook, with accompanying Solutions and Instructor's Manuals, it will offer both students and professionals new to the subject a window into the new world of engineering. The reader will find: A general overview of the relationship between living systems and engineering and how biosystems can and do affect engineering design, from structural materials to thermal-fluid behavior to systems engineering Applications of bio-systems to robotics and biomedical engineeringEnd of chapter problems and exercises to reinforce design concepts and expand understanding.
