Bionic Lightweight Design
Generate best in class biomimetic lighweight designs using parametric algorithms
The Challenge
The transfer of bionic patterns to real-life applications is time-consuming and infeasible because of manual sketching and inadaptability to the technical specifications such as loads and materials which results in non-optimal structures.
- Generating biomimetic design patterns is not possible or highly inefficient in a classical CAD environment
- Manual drawing of the biomimetic designs is a time-consuming task because of the complexity of the bionic shapes
- The structures cannot be remodified easily to satisfy given design criteria
Our Approach
Integrate multiple design features to easily create biomimetic lightweight designs in a parametrized way.
1
VORONOI CELLS
Create a Voronoi diagram with the help of a set of points. Offset the Voronoi diagram curves and create the surfaces to obtain Voronoi cells
2
VORONOI RIBS
Perform a boolean difference between Voronoi cells and a surface overlapped with it to obtain Voronoi ribs
3
BIONIC DESIGN
Extrude the Voronoi ribs into the perpendicular design to get a bionic design
Your Value
Generate innovative and high-performance bionic parts in an intuitive way.
- Develop biomimetic designs using powerful and easy-to-use algorithms eliminating the need for manual drawing in a CAD environment
- Parametrically developed designs allow for the easy modification of the structures to meet the specifications and functionality of the design requirements
- Combine multiple features and develop innovative products through biological construction principles
