Abstract:
Under the umbrella of biologically informed disciplines, biomimicry is a design methodology that proponents often assert will lead to a more sustainable future. In realizing that future, it becomes necessary to discern specifically what biomimicry’s “promises” are in relation to sustainable futures, and what is required in order for them to be fulfilled. This paper presents research examining the webpages of the Biomimicry Global Network (BGN) to extract the claims and promises expressed by biomimicry practitioners. These promises are assessed using current literature to determine their presuppositions and requirements. Biomimicry’s promises are expressed in terms of potential for innovation, sustainability, and transformation and appear to depend on perceived relationships between humanity and nature; nature and technology; the underlying value judgements of practitioners. The findings emphasize that in order for the communicated promise of biomimicry to be realized, a particular ethos and respectful engagement with nature must accompany the technological endeavors of the practice.

Abstract:
Formulating how biomimicry relates to nature has been crucial to ‘deepening’ its theory. Currently, an autopoietic model of nature dominates the literature. However, advances in the natural and human sciences have demonstrated that autopoiesis does not adequately explain complex, dynamic, responsive, and situated systems. This article draws on Beth Dempster’s (1998) characterisation of ecosystems as sympoietic, that is as homeorhetic, evolutionary, distributively controlled, unpredictable, and adaptive, and on Donna Jeanne Haraway’s (2016) critique that entities do not pre-exist their relationships. We argue that using sympoietic processes of becoming as our model, measure, and mentor impacts biomimicry’s practice and relation to sustainability. Taking John Todd’s Living Machines as a case study, we explicate how sympoiesis unfurls autopoiesis. By integrating advances in the natural and human sciences into the philosophy of biomimicry, we address the limitations of the autopoietic model and provide a more comprehensive and adequate model of ‘nature.’

Abstract:
ABSTRACTNature can be a source of unlimited inspiration, biomimicry is an innovative approach to find sustainable solutions to overcome problems and meet human needs by imitating existing patterns and strategies in nature. The Industrial Revolution 4.0 brought many changes in human life, changes in lifestyles, ways of working, ways of learning, and ways of communicating between humans in many aspects. Most University students make use of technology to find and develop their ideas especially in creative industries where the OIM (Observe, Imitate, Modify) practice can be done through the Internet by observing from another researcher's observation. While biomimicry offers researchers to observe nature and create technology innovation inspired by nature. Students need to experience and learn from nature and use technology wisely. This study examines the biomimicryinspired works of Product Design undergraduate program students of Podomoro University Jakarta. The methodology research that we use in this study is a qualitative participatory method with comparative and correlational studies. The content of this study is to learn and evaluate the process and result of student's biomimicry observation into innovative product design. The conclusion can also be drawn that comparing the different levels of students which is the first year, second year, and third-year students by using the biomimicry observation approach will show variated concepts and skills on their work depending on what knowledge that they have learned from each semester. Pembelajaran Biomimikri sebagai Inspirasi dalam Inovasi Desain Produk di Era Revolusi Industri 4.0 ABSTRAK Alam dapat menjadi sumber inspirasi tanpa batas, biomimikri adalah pendekatan inovatif untuk menemukan solusi berkelanjutan untuk mengatasi berbagai permasalahan dan memenuhi kebutuhan manusia dengan meniru pola serta strategi yang nyata di alam. Revolusi Industri 4.0 membawa banyak perubahan dalam kehidupan manusia, perubahan gaya hidup, cara bekerja, cara belajar, dan cara berkomunikasi antara manusia dalam banyak aspek. Sebagian besar mahasiswa memanfaatkan teknologi untuk menemukan dan mengembangkan ideide mereka terutama di industri kreatif di mana praktik ATM (Amati, Tiru, Modifikasi) dapat dilakukan melalui Internet dengan mengamati dari pengamatan peneliti lain. Sementara biomimikri menawarkan peneliti untuk mengamati alam dan menciptakan inovasi teknologi yang terinspirasi oleh alam. Diharapkan dengan riset ini siswa bisa mendapatkan pengalaman nyata, mereka dapat termotivasi untuk mempelajari alam dan juga dapat menggunakan teknologi secara bijaksana. Riset ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji karya-karya yang terinspirasi biomimikri dari mahasiswa program sarjana jurusan Desain Produk Universitas Agung Podomoro Jakarta. Metodologi penelitian yang digunakan dalam riset ini adalah metode kualitatif parsitipatif dengan pendekatan korelatif serta komparatif. Konten kajian dalam studi ini merupakan evaluasi serta proses pembelajaran mahasiswa dalam penciptaan desain produk inovatif. Dari hasil riset ini dapat ditarik kesimpulan bahwa ternyata setelah melakukan perbandingan rancangan mahasiswa tahun pertama, kedua dan ketiga dengan menggunakan pendekatan observasi biomimikri maka ditemukan adanya perbedaan hasil serta tingkat keterampilan pada masing-masing angkatan tergantung dari pengetahuan yang mereka telah pelajari dan dapatkan di setiap semesternya.

Abstract:
This Article find five categories of biomimicry are proposed, divided into five levels. It should be noted that these categories are closely interrelated - a robot with a first or second level of structural biomimicry cannot have a fourth or fifth level of kinetic biomimicry, while a low level of sensory biomimicry will also mean the impossibility of achieving a high level of behavioral biomimicry - and vice versa. The least binding to other categories has the image biomimicry, a low level of which does not in any way affect the high level of any other category of biomimicry, but a high level of which is necessary to achieve an ideal fifth level of imitation.

Abstract:
Biomimicry, a design philosophy that is based on the principles of nature, presents a promising solution to the sustainability challenges faced by modern agriculture. Biomimicry agriculture endeavours to replicate the efficacy, resilience, and sustainability of natural systems by drawing inspiration from ecosystems. By analysing agricultural challenges and identifying the biomimicry approach in previous research, this study investigates the alternative method in biomimicry to ensure a sufficient food supply for agriculture. This document examines the adoption of biomimicry in the agricultural sector. A comprehensive content analysis of four case studies that concentrated on biomimicry farming systems and their integration with agricultural design was conducted. The case study selection was determined by the concept of biomimicry, which involves the transfer of inspiration from nature to the commonplace built environment. The results indicate that the design of Biomimicry is anticipated to enhance the efficacy of agriculture and technology in terms of environmental sustainability and well-being. The urban environment can be transformed through the application of biomimicry, as evidenced by this agricultural study. In summary, biomimicry has the potential to significantly improve the sustainability and resilience of agriculture. It has the potential to create innovative solutions that improve food security, conserve natural resources, and reduce the environmental effects of cultivation.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 28-30).
The aim of this paper is to perform a review of Biomimicry as a science today in environmental, engineering, and manufacturing fields, as well as to educate readers on the history of Biomimicry as a whole and how it is studied. As more evidence surfaces about the effect of our presence on the Earth, the scientific community is faced with the challenge of solving these problems. After introducing these concepts, an in-depth review of two of the most studied topics in biomimicry is conducted: how the lotus remains clean in a dirty swamp and how the gecko can stick to any surface. These two topics are taken from the classical beliefs on how they work and leads them through into today's world, focusing on how the mechanisms behind them were discovered. Both sections end with a review of current applications of the technologies that have been developed by studying these living organisms. Everything is wrapped up with a discussion of why we must continue to study biomimicry and apply its principles to our engineering and production practices.

Abstract:
Vi behöver minska vår materialkonsumtion, idag gör vi av med mer resurser än vad vi har tillgång till. I den här studien har först en materialkonstruktion tagits fram och därefter ett produktkoncept för konstruktionen. För att ta fram materialkonstruktionen har biomimicry använts. Biomimicry är designmetoder för att lösa designproblem med inspiration från naturen. Naturen använder sig av så lite material som möjligt. Materialkonstruktionen är inspirerad av växtceller. Konstruktionen har två hierarkier som går i två olika riktningar, en riktning som går längs med och en riktning som går i djupled.För att hitta ett produktkoncept för materialkonstruktionen har material driven design (MDD) använts. MDD är en experimentell metod för att lära känna ett material och förstå dess användningsområde. Produktkonceptet är en stapelbar pall.För att minska på resurser används 3d-printning. 3d-printning är en additiv teknik och minskar på så sätt materialåtgång. Dessutom kan allt material lätt återanvändas eftersom det bara behövs ett material.Produkten kan produceras lokalt vilket minskar på transporter. PLA har använts som material i den här studien.

The construction has two hierarchies that go in two different directions.To find a product concept for the construction, material driven design (MDD) has been used. MDD is an experimental method used to get to know a material and understand its application. The product concept is a stackable pallet.To reduce resources, 3D printing is used. 3D printing is an additive technology and thus reduces material consumption. In addition, all material can be easily reused as only one material is needed.The product can be produced locally, which reduces on transport. PLA has been used as material in this study.

Abstract:
Spider silk is known for its extraordinary material properties, being both very strong and extensible. Even though the fibers outperform many synthetic and natural materials, it is impractical to collect industrial amounts of silk from spiders due to their cannibalistic and venomous nature; they cannot be farmed like the commercial silk worm Bombyx mori. Thus, scientists have turned to molecular and engineering techniques to replicate the spider's silk and spinning apparatus. In the current literature there is no detailed protocol on the production of consistent synthetic fibers. To accomplish this, the fibroins and natural spinning apparatus were taken apart and analyzed in order to develop a protocol that biomimics the spider's system. The laboratory procedure, using the natural process as an example, was simplified to: protein production, purification, concentration, fiber spinning, and lastly post spin draw. Large quantities of truncated MaSp I spidroin (spider fibroin) was purified from E. coli and successfully spun into fibers using customized spinning, spooling, and stretching apparatuses. The final fiber products displayed mechanical properties that were comparable to other reported synthetic fibers, but more importantly also displayed low experimental variability between samples. The protocol developed in this study can be further used to characterize other spidroins and silk proteins, and can be further advanced to produce even better fibers with enhanced properties.

Abstract:
The goal of this thesis is to understand how the Biomimicry Toolbox (BT), a practical tool for applying biomimicry, currently supports strategic thinking in order to create sustainable solutions. A pragmatic qualitative research approach was used, in which the BT was analysed through the lens of the Five Level Framework (5LF), a tool for planning and analysing in complex systems and the Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development, the application of the 5LF for sustainability endeavours. Interviews were conducted with people experienced with the BT. Results show that the BT has several aspects of strategic thinking. It supports the application of a systems perspective, provides a success goal to move towards and offers tools for a strategic process to follow. The authors conclude that the BT could benefit from including understanding of the patterns and structures of the social system in relation with the earth system. Also, it can benefit from including a section on upstream thinking helping users of the BT consider root causes. Lastly, it could benefit from a strategic approach for evaluating how sustainable solutions are and include a simple and clear prioritisation process. The improvements can make the BT more impactful in supporting societies transition towards sustainability.

Abstract:
Human activities have significantly impacted aquatic ecosystems worldwide, especially in developing countries. Acid mine drainage from mineral extraction and wastewater containing xenobiotics pose substantial threats for lakes and marine ecosystems, introducing heavy metals and increasing antibiotic resistance in pathogenic microbes. Despite the urgent need for effective solutions, many environmental liabilities remain without an adequate mapping unmapped or remediation plan, exacerbating risks for environmental health. To address these challenges, our team proposes FISHER-X, a biomimetic robot inspired by the hadal snailfish Pseudoliparis swirei. This innovative technological tool is designed to support integrative studies and monitor water bodies near industrial facilities, particularly mining units. FISHER-X's proposed capabilities make it a suitable tool for assessing polluted and hazardous environments. This paper presents the conceptual design of FISHER-X, including fundamental equations for engineering design, motion mechanisms based on computational simulation, and a proposed validation test. Potential applications extend beyond conventional environmental monitoring, such as habitability surveys, life detection, and physicochemical characterization and mapping of aquatic environments on Earth and beyond.

Abstract:
Socially beneficial, profitable products that restore or at least leave the environment undamaged (i.e. sustainable products) remain an elusive goal. Emulation of the inherently sustainable living world through biomimetic design potentially offers one approach to creating sustainable or, at least, less unsustainable products. In this article, one learns, however, that current approaches to biomimicry do not necessarily lead to such ends. Examination of research and practice reveals a reductive mindset that limits biomimicry’s applicability within the context of sustainable engineering. To remove this limitation, this article proposes a holistic view of biomimicry that goes beyond imitation of a few features of a particular organism. A holistic view of biomimicry involves incorporation of life’s general characteristics in design and application of these characteristics across multiple spatial, temporal and organizational scales of engineering influence. The article initiates the development of holistic biomimicry as a guiding framework for designers interested in utilizing biomimicry’s potential as a sustainable design tool.

Abstract:
The growing need for urbanisation has resulted in the intense development of the construction industry, which has negatively impacted the conservation of the environment. In this regard, to preserve the ecosystems, the concept of sustainable development was introduced, however, the effectiveness of the existing sustainability practices in the construction industry is at a questionable level. Meanwhile, the evolving concept of biomimicry, which inspires and learns from natural processes, has proven the capacity to achieve sustainable parameters when incorporated into construction processes. Yet, there is a noticeable gap in applying the biomimicry concept to improve the sustainability of the construction industry. Therefore, this study aims to comprehend the applicability of the biomimicry concept in improving the sustainability of the construction industry. Accordingly, a comprehensive literature review was conducted on existing studies related to the biomimicry concept. The content analysis method was used to analyse the collected data. The findings suggested that the biomimicry concept can contribute to sustainable parameters such as material efficiency, energy efficiency and zero-waste concept. Accordingly, this study reveals the potential to improve the sustainability of the construction industry by comprehending the application of the biomimicry concept in detail. In this regard, the study discovers the enablers, barriers and strategies for biomimicry application in the construction industry. Accordingly, this study contributes to the theory and bridges the knowledge gap in utilising biomimicry applications to enhance the sustainability of the construction industry. It demonstrates how various biomimicry inspirations can positively impact sustainable parameters such as material efficiency, energy efficiency, and zero waste, thereby revealing the concept's applicability in developing a sustainable built environment.

Abstract:
Abstract The discipline of biomimicry encourages engineers to take design inspiration from the nearly four billion years of research and development since life first appeared on Earth — nature is the greatest engineering designer. Rather than leveraging biomimicry as a discipline unto itself (a worthy approach, regardless), this project explores biomimicry as a tool to inspire K12 students to appreciate math and engineering. We conducted this project in four lesson modules and one lab. In the first module, we presented various types of engineering. In the second, we introduced certain aspects of mathematics from a qualitative perspective. In the third, we discussed the fundamental mathematics that undergirds thermodynamics, although qualitatively and visually. In the fourth, we introduced the students to the world of biomimicry. Then we integrated the mathematics and biomimicry with a laboratory experience in quantitative design, borrowed from an NSF sponsored project. In summary, efforts in biomimicry reside at either the quantitative arena of multi-phase physics, or the qualitative arena of biological interpretations. However, we have used it as a bridge to science, math and engineering.

Abstract:
The increasing urban population and its associated activities significantly contribute to greenhouse gas emissions and exacerbate climate change impacts. Urban areas, particularly susceptible to extreme weather events, face challenges such as heat stress, flooding, air pollution, and water scarcity. In response, the concept of biomimicry, drawing inspiration from nature's functional principles, has gained traction as a viable approach for sustainable urban design. By emulating natural systems and processes, biomimetic solutions offer innovative strategies for addressing environmental challenges at various scales, from single buildings to entire urban areas. This study explores the potential of biomimicry in urban building design to mitigate environmental challenges associated with rapid urbanisation and climate change. Utilising a two-part methodology, the research includes a narrative literature review and a survey of practical case studies to evaluate the benefits of biomimetic concepts in architecture. The literature review provides a comprehensive, critical analysis of current knowledge on biomimicry, while the case studies showcase real-world examples of biomimetic design, such as the Eden Project and Eastgate Centre. Findings demonstrate that biomimicry enhances energy efficiency, reduces Carbon emissions, and increases resilience against extreme weather events. The study concludes that while biomimicry holds great promise for creating sustainable and resilient urban environments, widespread adoption is hindered by limited awareness and education among stakeholders. The research contributes to the field by highlighting the need for increased training and collaboration in biomimicry to fully harness its potential for sustainable urban design.
