Process Sequences In Biomimetic Research
@inproceedings{Speck2008ProcessSI, title={Process Sequences In Biomimetic Research}, author={Thomas Speck and Olga Speck}, year={2008} }
The entire developmental process from the biological template to the marketable biomimetic product is characterized by close cooperation between biologists, engineers and other scientists involved in the research project, who may come from branches of mathematics, informatics, physics, chemistry, geology, hydrology or meteorology. The presented methodology of doing biomimetics has proven effective in many R&D projects. Two principally different approaches can be distinguished as ‘bottom-up…
