Abstract:
Electrically conductive fabrics are one of the major components of smart textile that attracts a lot of attention by the energy, medical, sports and military industry. The principal contributors to the conductivity of the smart textiles are the intrinsic properties of the fiber, functionalization by the addition of conductive particles and the architecture of fibers. In this study, intrinsic properties of non-woven carbon fabric derived from a novel linear lignin, poly-(caffeyl alcohol) (PCFA) discovered in the seeds of the vanilla orchid (Vanilla planifolia) was investigated.

Nature offers outstanding examples of multifunctional complex structures able to address different needs by changing the composition or the arrangement of the available materials. In this work, a representative selection of bioinspired materials with functional application is presented. Taking inspiration from biominerals, calcite hybrid crystals including both small molecules and nPs have been synthesized. RA, a small molecule active in cell differentiation, has been included into calcite single crystals and its activity is conserved upon slow dissolution of the matrix. PluS-OH nanoparticles

Abstract:
The use of bio-inspired methods for production of mesoporous silicas could lead to significant improvements in the synthetic conditions at which these materials are traditionally produced, removing the need for strong pH as well as high temperatures and pressures, and opening the way for milder treatments for template removal. However, due to the complexity of these systems, with many processes occurring simultaneously and high dependence on the specific synthetic conditions,obtaining a detailed description of their mechanism of formation based only on experimental methods is often very diffic

Mechanical Engineering<br>Ph.D.<br>The needle-based procedures are usually considered minimally invasive. However, in insertion into soft tissues such as brain and liver, the tissue damage caused by needle insertion can be very significant. From the literature, it has been known that reduction in needle insertion and extraction forces as well as tissue deformation during the insertion results in less invasive procedure. This work aims to design and develop a new bioinspired design for surgical needles which reduce the insertion and extraction forces of the needle, and its damage to the tissue.

In recent years, the design, fabrication, and control of robotic systems inspired by biology has gained renewed attention due to the potential improvements in efficiency, maneuverability, and adaptability with which animals interact with their environments. Motion studies of biological systems such as humans, fish, insects, birds and bats are often used as a basis for robotic system design. Often, these studies are conducted by recording natural motions of the system of interest using a few high-resolution, high-speed cameras.

Through the use of tailored sustainable bioinspired design (BID) tools and methodologies, engineers could access and apply this body of biological knowledge to reduce the environmental impact of engineering designs. However, the underlying theory of BID must be more thoroughly fleshed out – and a clearer understanding of the types of sustainability solutions present in biology must be achieved – before such tools and methodologies can be developed.

Abstract:
Bioinspired design uses biological systems to inspire engineering designs. One of bioinspired design’s challenges is identifying relevant information sources in biology for an engineering design task. Currently information can be retrieved by searching biology texts or journals using biology-focused keywords that map to engineering functions. However, this search technique can overwhelm designers with unusable results. This work explores the use of text classification tools to identify relevant biology passages for design. Further, this research examines the effects of using biology passages

Current guidelines in materials design are not just based on changing the properties of the different phases but also on modifying its base architecture. Hence, the mechanical behavior of composite materials can be adjusted by designing microstructures that alternate stiff and flexible constituents, combined with well-designed architectures.
