Dear Colleagues,
1. Springer has published our volume on Biologically Inspired Design: Computational Methods and Tools.
Here is a short Springer video on it: <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4pWMZiFMpA>.
The book contains several chapters written by leading researchers on this list including Julian Vincent.
The front matter, including the ToC and an inspiring foreword by Janine Benyus, can be downloaded from <http://link.springer.com/content/pdf/bfm%3A978-1-4471-5248-4%2F1.pdf>.
2. The ASME Journal of Mechanical Design is bringing out a special issue on Biologically Inspired Design: <http://asmejmd.org/2013/07/25/special-issue-2014-biologically-inspired-design/>.
3. The Cambridge University Press' AIEDAM Journal is bringing out a special issue on Analogical Thinking
(including analogical thinking in biomimicry, biomimetics, bioinspiration, and biologically inspired design): <http://aiedam.usc.edu/index.php/SpecialIssues/Vol29No2>.
Thank you,
Ashok
