morphoinspired
Morphoinspired is a term used to describe systems, designs, or processes that draw inspiration from biological morphology, the study of the form and structure of living organisms. This approach leverages the evolutionary solutions found in nature to solve complex engineering or design challenges. Morphoinspired design often involves analyzing the shape, material properties, and functional mechanisms of biological structures to create novel and efficient artificial counterparts.
The underlying principle is biomimicry, specifically focusing on the physical form. Examples can range from the
