Bioinspired iterative synthesis of polyketides [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2015
Diverse array of biopolymers and second metabolites (particularly polyketide natural products) has been manufactured in nature through an enzymatic iterative assembly of simple building blocks. Inspired by this strategy, molecules with inherent modularity can be efficiently synthesized by repeated succession of similar reaction sequences.

Beyond analogy: A model of bioinspiration for creative design

open access: yes, 2016
International audienceIs biologically inspired design only an analogical transfer from biology to engineering? Actually, nature does not alwaysbring “hands-on” solutions that can be analogically applied in classic engineering.

Entwicklung eines neuartigen Frühbeets auf der Basis von Bioinspiration

open access: yes, 2021
Die Anzucht von Gemüse in herkömmlichen Frühbeetkästen birgt so manche Probleme. Der Zugang zur Beetfläche ist mühsam, die zum Lüften geöffneten Fenster lassen sich nur in be-stimmten Positionen arretieren und sind anfällig dafür, vom Wind beschädigt ...

From Geometry to Function: Programmable Mechanical Response in 3D‐Printed Adipose‐Inspired Soft Metamaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 70, 31 August 2026.
Geometry‐driven design of soft cellular metamaterials is systematically investigated by combining experiments, finite element modeling, and statistical prediction. The study quantifies how unit cell geometry and material properties govern stiffness, instability, densification, and energy absorption.
