Abstract

Bionics is an interdisciplinary field of science, the aim of which is to create models that map processes and principles of functioning of the living organisms that can be transferred to technology. The bionic design is an interesting trend in contemporary architecture, which is characterized by the search for spatial forms in analogy to living organisms. The analyses of the possibilities to describe natural patterns using mathematical models that enable the transfer of biological structures are of particular importance. The natural patterns open up new ways to look for effective structures and materials. Shaping the forms "adapted" to the conditions, the environment and the surroundings is an element of structural design optimized in terms of working loads, which exists in accordance with the idea of a sustainable development. The paper presents the results of the research on the possibility of using mathematical models in architecture that mimic the forms found in nature and the analysis of the efficiency of bionic and geometrical forms due to the minimum weight criterion.

Highlights

  • The modern design process leads increasingly to a holistic approach

  • The bionic design that allows for the mapping of rules governing nature, functional features of biological tissues, as well as processes and structures is of particular importance in order to transfer the created models to the technology

  • The search for bionic patterns found in nature that can be transferred to technology is a new feature in the field of architecture modeling

Summary

Introduction

The modern design process leads increasingly to a holistic approach. This type of design, which takes many aspects of the idea of sustainable development into account, is an interdisciplinary design process in which synergy solutions are sought. In this context, the bionic design that allows for the mapping of rules governing nature, functional features of biological tissues, as well as processes and structures is of particular importance in order to transfer the created models to the technology. Bionic architecture are objects adapted to the surrounding environmental conditions and constructed with minimal energy and material consumption
