Multifunctional Bio-inspired Design (MBID): A rapid idea generation system for multifunctional bio-inspired designs

Abstract

La conception bioinspirée imite la nature pour créer des produits ou systèmes multifonctionnels. Elle s'inspire de l'efficacité et de l'adaptabilité de la nature, comme un robot chirurgical inspiré par la trompe d'un éléphant. Les méthodes actuelles imitent souvent une seule caractéristique, manquant de multifonctionnalité. Avec des besoins croissants et des défis environnementaux, la bioinspiration offre des solutions novatrices, mais il existe un écart dans la création de conceptions multifonctionnelles et de leurs systèmes de génération rapide.Cette recherche introduit une nouvelle méthode : elle simplifie l'abstraction et la classification des caractéristiques biologiques en "Domaines", aidant à choisir des caractéristiques pour les conceptions. Elle cartographie ces caractéristiques vers leurs tissus d'origine, guidant la sélection des matériaux. Des critères aident à choisir des caractéristiques pertinentes avec des fonctions similaires mais des origines biologiques différentes. Des études de cas, comme des sutures indolores ou des conceptions de pneus non pneumatiques, valident cette approche pour créer des conceptions bioinspirées novatrices

Bioinspired design mimics nature to create multifunctional products or systems. It's about drawing from nature's efficiency and adaptability, like a surgical robot inspired by an elephant's trunk. Current methods often mimic only one feature, lacking in multifunctionality. With growing needs and environmental challenges, bioinspiration offers innovative solutions, but there's a gap in creating multifunctional designs and their rapid generation systems.This research introduces a new method that simplifies how biological features are abstracted and classified into 'Domains,' aiding in selecting features for designs. It maps these features to their original tissues, guiding material selection. Novel criteria to help choose relevant features that have similar functions but different biological origins. Case studies, like painless sutures or non-pneumatic tire designs, validate this approach for creating novel bio-inspired designs
