Bioinspiration & Biomimetics

生物灵感与仿生学发表了一项研究，涉及研究和提炼生物系统中的原理和功能，这些原理和功能是通过进化发展而来的，并应用这些知识来产生新颖而令人兴奋的基本技术和解决科学问题的新方法。它为跨学科研究提供了一个论坛，作为一条管道，促进思想的双向流动和不同学科广泛知识体之间的理解。它有两个主要目的：利用生物学来丰富工程学，利用工程学来丰富生物学。期刊的目标是包括来自两个领域所有交叉领域的输入。在生物学中，这将包括从生理学到生态学的所有领域的工作，无论是动物学还是植物学。在工程学中，这将包括仿生或仿生装置和系统的设计和实际应用。典型的关注领域包括：系统、设计和结构通信与导航合作行为自组织生物系统自愈自组装航空运动与仿生学在航空航天中的应用生物形态表面和地下系统海洋动力学：游泳和水下动力学新型材料的应用生物力学；包括运动、运动、流体力学细胞行为传感器和感官地质勘探的仿生或生物信息方法该杂志的目标是广泛的科学和国际观众跨学科广泛的生物和物理科学。因此，在撰写文章时应牢记该领域的跨学科性质，并应简要解释专门术语。

Bioinspiration & Biomimetics publishes research involving the study and distillation of principles and functions found in biological systems that have been developed through evolution, and application of this knowledge to produce novel and exciting basic technologies and new approaches to solving scientific problems. It provides a forum for interdisciplinary research which acts as a pipeline, facilitating the two-way flow of ideas and understanding between the extensive bodies of knowledge of the different disciplines. It has two principal aims: to draw on biology to enrich engineering and to draw from engineering to enrich biology.The journal aims to include input from across all intersecting areas of both fields. In biology, this would include work in all fields from physiology to ecology, with either zoological or botanical focus. In engineering, this would include both design and practical application of biomimetic or bioinspired devices and systems. Typical areas of interest include:Systems, designs and structureCommunication and navigationCooperative behaviourSelf-organizing biological systemsSelf-healing and self-assemblyAerial locomotion and aerospace applications of biomimeticsBiomorphic surface and subsurface systemsMarine dynamics: swimming and underwater dynamicsApplications of novel materialsBiomechanics; including movement, locomotion, fluidicsCellular behaviourSensors and sensesBiomimetic or bioinformed approaches to geological explorationThe journal is aimed at a broad scientific and international audience across a wide spectrum of disciplines from the biological and physical sciences. Therefore, contributions should be written keeping in mind the interdisciplinary nature of the field and specialized terms should be concisely explained.
