Sinopsis del Libro

Libro Biomimicry for Materials, Design and Habitats

Biomimicry for Materials, Design and Habitats: Innovations and Applications and is a survey of the recent work of recognized experts in a variety of fields who employ biomimicry and related paradigms to solve key problems of interest within design, science, technology, and society. Topics covered include innovations from biomimicry in materials, product design, architecture, and biological sciences. The book is a useful resource for educators, designers, researchers, engineers, and materials scientists, taking them from the theory behind biomimicry to real world applications. Living systems have evolved innovative solutions to challenges that humans face on a daily basis. Nonlinear multifunctional systems that have a symbiotic relationship with their environment are the domain of nature. Morphological solutions for buildings inspired by nature can be used for skins, surfaces, and structures to facilitate environmental adaptation of buildings to increase occupant comfort and reduce energy demands. Birds can teach us to produce novel structures, 3D printing can be informed by oysters and mussels, and mycelium may show us the way to fabricate new biocomposites in architecture. Therefore, it is in nature that we seek inspiration for the solutions to tomorrow’s challenges. Presents new directions in education and the various applications of biomimicry within industry, including bio-inspired entrepreneurship Discusses the role of biomimicry in education, innovation, and product design Covers applications in systems engineering and design, novel materials with applications in 3D printing, and bio-inspired architecture Includes perspectives on sustainability detailing the role that bio-inspiration or biomimicry plays in sustainability

Los perfeccionistas

Libro Los perfeccionistas

La perfección no existe, pero los desconocidos ingenieros que se han empeñado en alcanzarla han tenido más importancia en nuestra vida de lo que pensamos. A través de anécdotas y ejemplos, teje la historia de la ingeniería de precisión y hace comprensibles sus inestimables aportaciones: el avión, la lente de una cámara Leica, las máquinas de rayos X, el telescopio Hubble, el microchip, el smartphone... Simon Winchester, venerado autor de bestsellers internacionales, hasta ahora no se había publicado en español. "Hipnotizante y fascinante. El Sr. Winchester es un maestro de la...

Fundamentos de ingeniería estructural para estudiantes de arquitectura

Libro Fundamentos de ingeniería estructural para estudiantes de arquitectura

Este libro entrega una visión global del problema del análisis y diseño estructural para estudiantes de Arquitectura. Su enfoque es esencialmente conceptual, desarrollado en una secuencia lógica basada en principios fundamentales de la física y la mecánica estructural, a fin de dar al estudiante una base racional sólida que le permita comprender cómo funcionan las estructuras, sobre todo desde el punto de vista sísmico. El propósito primordial de esta enseñanza en la carrera de Arquitectura es que los futuros profesionales desarrollen sus obras con un esqueleto resistente sano y...
