Biomimetics in Helmet Design: A Review of Aerodynamic Perspectives
Journal of Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Recent advancements in helmet design demonstrate that mimicking natural models can enhance both aerodynamics and safety protection. Thus, this paper comprehensively reviews the bio‐inspired helmet designs reported in the latest computational and experimental studies, in addition to discussing the biomimetic approaches that integrate aerodynamic ...

All Organisms Can Be Anesthetized, but There's No Point?
BioEssays, Volume 47, Issue 10, October 2025.ABSTRACT Because of their interest in medicine, most studies on anesthesia have historically focused on the nervous systems of animals. This has often led to the neglect of the fact that all life forms have the potential to be anesthetized. Anesthetics target proteins, such as four‐domain voltage‐dependent Na+/Ca2⁺ channels (4D‐NaV/CaV) and glutamate ...

Robust and emergent Physarum logical-computing
, 2004 There have been many attempts for realization of emergent computing, but the notion of emergent computing is still ambiguous. In an open system, emergence and an error cannot be specified distinctly, because they are dependent on the dis-equilibration ...

Biohybrid Computing with Proteinoids and Algae
Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 36, September 25, 2025.We developed a novel biohybrid computing system by combining proteinoid microspheres with algae. The biological mixture creates spontaneous electrical oscillations. These oscillations can perform simple logic operations, such as AND, OR, NAND, and NOR gates. Environmental factors like temperature and pH affect how the system works.

Journal of Computational Chemistry, Volume 46, Issue 16, June 15, 2025.In the context of the AMBER parameterization, a new force field is developed and validated for the simulation of cadmium(II)‐binding proteins. The proposed force field takes into account the polarization effect produced by the central ion on its surroundings.

Physarum machines for space missions [PDF]
, 2013 A Physarum machine is a programmable amorphous biological computer experimentally implemented in plasmodium Physarum polycephalum. We overview a range of tasks solvable by Physarum machines and speculate on how the Physarum machines could be used in ...

Information-Theoretic Aspects of Control in a Bio-Hybrid Robot Device
, 2008 Information processing in natural systems radically differs from current information technology. This difference is particularly apparent in the area of robotics, where both organisms and artificial devices face a similar challenge: the need to act in ...
