Nature as paradigm for sustainability in the textile and apparel industry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Imagine if clothing of the future would adapt, grow, self repair and change appearance. The relationship between wearer and garment would be that of symbiosis enabled by developments in material science that produce textiles able to imitate ...

BIOMIMETIC ENGINEERING

open access: yesActa Horticulturae, 2008
Humankind is a privileged animal species for many reasons. A remarkable one is its ability to conceive and manufacture objects. Human industry is indeed leading the various winning strategies (along with language and culture) that has permitted this primate to extraordinarily increase its life expectancy and proliferation rate.
