Introducing students to the process and the procedure of synthesis (create) a combination of mechanical systems engineering design (design) and industrial and bionic design. Besides, the goal of this course is to develop creative skills of students in the design of machines. Understanding the methodology and procedures to create innovative mechanical system through the phase of designing, selection of parameters, dimensions and shape of machine parts, alignment features (functional and aesthetic) with the environment, living and working environment.
The student is introduced to the procedure of abstract thinking and creative idea generation, the development methodology of the new principal, conceptual, based on bionic solutions. Dressed in designing machine parts and assemblies based on bionic principles, functional, technological, aesthetic, ergonomic, and others. Trained to implement budgets for the mutual adjustment of parameters of machine parts with the limitations, the development of forms and sizes.
History and Development bignic system. Experience in engineering: flying, navigation, civil engineering, architecture, and military construction. Inclusion bionic aspects in the design process and construction of mechanical systems. Mathematical principles of bionic system. Fibonacci sequence. Fibonacci spiral. "Gold" section (the relationship) and "Golden" angle. The influence of the golden ratio in engineering design. The concept of fractals and fractal geometry. Cantor set. Euclid's natural forms. The effects of scale, form and similarity in nature and their impact on the development of modern machine design and systems. Energy efficiency of natural systems as models in the design of modern engineering structures, the experience of flight, navigation, energy, process engineering, military technology and others. Natural (bionic) building materials. Modern composite materials. Thermoplastic and thermosetting materials in engineering. "Smart" and functional materials in engineering structures and modern design.
Influences Leonardo da Vinci, Sir George Cayley, Otto Lilienthal, Gustave Eiffel, Raoul France and Graf von Zeppelin. Bio-strategy application process in fulfilling the spirit of laws rules of biological evolution, which should translate into an acceptable technical solution. Ten basic principles of natural structures. Implementation bionic humanoid proportions and impact on the ergonomic design. Some typical relations (numbers) that characterize the specific effects of similarity and scaling in nature. Bionic Design - views and role models. Wood, vegetable fiber, animal: wool, silk, spider web, etc.. Natural resins. Artificial resins - matrix (binder) materials: Epoxy, Polyester, Vinyl ester, phenolic, polyimide, bismaleimide et al. Cellular materials, and intelligent optical fiber. Electrical and magnetic restatic. Semiconductor spintronics. Magnetic materials. DNA nano-products.
