  • Our biomimetic R&D expertise | Bioxegy

    Biomimicry uses the ingenuity of the living world to inspire the technologies and services of the future. Bioxegy is Europe's pioneering biomimicry design and engineering company. Dare to innovate in bio-inspired R&D! Our biomimetic R&D expertise Bioxegy, expert and pioneer in biomimicry in France Up A cutting-edge biomimetic R&D expertise validated by our international industrial partners. Since 2018, Bioxegy has continually developed its unique expertise in biomimetic R&D , and thus has a methodology proven through more than 80 projects carried out with our industrial partners ! In order to promote the rapid development of efficient and tangible biomimetic solutions for our partners, our methodology is schematically divided into 4 “Phases” that accompany the rise in maturity of bio-inspired technology : from pre-concept to industrialisation. Bioxegy Biomimétisme Discover our expertise : PHASE 1 PHASE 2 PHASE 3 PHASE 4 Pre B iomimetic Study Advanced Biomimetic Design Study Proof-of-Concept (POC), Experimental Project Proof-of-Concept (POC), Experimental Project PHASE 1 : Pre Biomimetic Study Objective - TRL 1 - 3 Phase 1 is often the first format of collaboration between Bioxegy and an industrial partner. The purpose is to resolve one or more industrial problems thanks to biomimetic pre-concepts and developmental approaches formulated by Bioxegy. It is then about selecting the most promising project for the development of a high-performance technological solution. Throughout Phase 1, Bioxegy familiarises itself with the specificities of its partner (products, constraints, industrial environment, etc.) and uses its expertise to provide possible solutions to the industrial problems submitted. Unfolding - 3 - 6 months In Phase 1, Bioxegy is able to carry out its work almost autonomously after the launch of the project. A mid-project workshop allows us to prioritise and select the most promising biomimetic avenues in consultation with our partner. Bioxegy then finely formulates a biomimetic pre-concept which will be developed in Phase 2. Common types of results The results at the end of Phase 1 can take different forms depending on the type of subjects covered and the needs of our partner: from a simple technical note supported by the latest work of scientific experts to pre-dimensioning validated by finite elements or CFD simulations. Pre Biomimetic Study Advanced Biomimetic Design Study Proof-of-Concept (POC), Experimental Project Proof-of-Concept (POC), Experimental Project PHASE 2 : Advanced Biomimetic Design Study Objective - TRL 3 - 4 Most often following a Phase 1, Phase 2 consists of continuing the development of an biomimetic technology that has been identified and considered promising. The objective of Phase 2 is to demonstrate and precisely characterise the performance of a biomimetic concept in the specific industrial case submitted by our partner. Unfolding - 4 - 12 mois The progress of Phase 2 depends on the type of expected results and the collaboration method collaboration with our partner. In particular, we have the expertise to be autonomous in modeling and simulation work, with workshops and steering committees organized as necessary. In the case of experimental studies, we can work directly with the laboratories and technicians of our partners, or in contact with third-party academic partners depending on the needs of the project. Common types of results Depending on the level of maturity at the start of the project and the type of technology considered, advanced design can take many different forms: analytical modeling, numerical simulations, algorithm development, chemical formulations, first prototypes, implementation of an experience plan, partner benchmark, etc. Pre Biomimetic Study Advanced Biomimetic Design Study Proof-of-Concept (POC), Experimental Project Proof-of-Concept (POC), Experimental Project PHASE 3 : Proof-of-Concept (POC), Projet Expérimental Objective - TRL 5 - 6 Phase 3 can follow various objectives depending on the projects, partners or industrial context. Usually it will consist of carrying out a proof of concept (POC) which are the first industrial demonstrators of a successful biomimetic concept. Unfolding - 3 - 18 mois The progress of a Phase 3 is extremely project-dependent and must be defined on a case-by-case basis with our partner. Bioxegy thus ensures the handover of the R&D work carried out and supports the industrialisation of the biomimetic concept. Pre Biomimetic Study Advanced Biomimetic Design St udy Proof-of-Concept (POC), Experimental Project Proof-of-Concept (POC), Experimental Project PHASE 4: Design Iteration and Industrialisation Phase 4 is considered on a case-by-case basis in order to support the scaling-up and industrialisation of technologies developed in previous Phases. Call on our expertise Through these 4 Phases, Bioxegy is able to support the rise in maturity of a technology throughout all its stages of development. We thus provide expertise that is complementary to yours in order to co-build your future innovations together and support you in your strategic areas of development: new technologies, incremental innovation, improvement of the user experience, eco-design, evolution of standards, etc. Our experience of the industry built alongside numerous partners, all sectors combined, allows us to evolve as autonomously as possible in order to limit the workload on your teams at best. Discover our sectors of activity We also offer biomimicry training to enable your teams to discover and acclimatise to our method on cases close to their issues through a one or two half-day workshop.

  • Biomimétisme & Lightweight Design | Bioxegy

    Biomimétisme : optimiser le rapport poids/résistance est un défi de taille pour de nombreuses industries, afin de réduire l'impact environnemental et énergétique de leurs produits et technologies. Le biomimétisme est un outil de conception particulièrement armé pour y répondre ! Biomimicry and thermo-regulation: playing with temperatures, a natural game Thermo-regulation concerns all sectors of activity. Whether it is about making a place comfortable for living beings or ensuring the proper functioning of a technical system, temperature is often an important parameter. Thus, a building or a means of transport must remain within reasonable temperature ranges, an electronic system must not overheat for safety reasons. Likewise, a chemical or medical component, such as a vaccine, must be maintained at a temperature guaranteeing its effectiveness. To control temperature in such diverse conditions, many challenges arise. First of all, questions of thermal insulation are essential to achieve a constant temperature regardless of external conditions, whether it is keeping a place hot or cold. This is generally not sufficient, and heating or cooling mechanisms are also necessary. The less energy these mechanisms consume, the better, both from an economic and environmental point of view. Finally, when processes generate heat, we must be able to dissipate this heat efficiently. Thermo-regulation issues are therefore complex and varied, and progress in this area is necessary for many applications. A specialist in the field, Bioxegy explains to you through a few examples why and how biomimicry is a source of solutions and new approaches for thinking about the thermo-regulation systems of the future. Nature does not escape the need for thermoregulation. On the contrary, the chemical reactions necessary for life, and more particularly the metabolisms of each living being, are effective in restricted temperature ranges, while external temperatures, in the air or in the water, vary enormously within of a day, a year, or even geographically. It's not for nothing that migratory birds fly to warmer regions in winter! Animals that winter or hibernate have chosen another strategy against the cold: since it makes them less efficient, they work less. Many other mechanisms are implemented by all species to adapt their temperature, as always in nature, in the most energy-efficient way possible. Thus, furs or plumages insulate the animals that wear them, transpiration cools plants and animals alike, and nests or burrows provide protection against external temperatures. Finally, behaviors, individual or collective, also play an essential role in animal thermoregulation. Reflecting the Sun so as not to heat up: the Sahara ants' thermoregulation Silver ants live in the Sahara Desert. They must protect themselves from the arid conditions that reign there: their body temperature must remain between 48°C and 51°C, while under the sun the ground temperature can exceed 70°C! Unlike many hot desert species, their strategy is not to live at night and hide during the day. How do they survive in such temperatures? Their hair offers them great protection. Thanks to their triangular shape, they reflect the majority of solar radiation received, which limits the heat provided by the Sun. The reflection is what gives them their pretty silver colour! In addition, the microstructure of these hairs allows good emissivity of infrared radiation, which effectively cools the ant. The structure of Sahara ant hairs has been reproduced to provide a surface with cooling properties. This new surface reflects more than 97% of solar radiation, which greatly limits its warming. In addition, the structure, like that of the silver ant's hairs, improves the emissivity of the surface: it therefore cools more effectively by radiation. The cooling power obtained is the highest to date for a microstructure, opening up interesting thermoregulation possibilities, whether it be for buildings or even satellites. Insulate like polar bear fur Polar bears are subjected to very low temperatures, as low as -40°C! Nevertheless, homeothermic animals manage to maintain a constant internal temperature in summer and winter. To help them do this, their fur is a great support: composed of numerous porous hairs, it creates an important barrier between the bear and the outside world. In fact, the air trapped in the hairs conducts very little heat (this is what is used in double glazing!). In this way, the temperature difference between the exterior of the fur, which remains very cold, and the interior, which must remain warm, is exacerbated. The polar bear's surface then emits little infrared, which limits the animal's loss of heat through radiation. An insulating textile has been developped using this structure. Made up of porous fibers, this textile is both light, resistant and thermally insulating. It thus makes it possible, like polar bear fur, to both maintain a temperature difference between the outside and the inside and to limit the emission of thermal radiation. Among other applications, it can then serve as an invisibility cloak for an infrared camera! A heat exchanger inspired by the human vascular system The human vascular system allows the transport within the body of nutrients for nutrition and gases for respiration. What is less known is that it also plays a role in our thermoregulation. Indeed, the exchange of matter is accompanied by heat exchanges, in order to keep the central temperature at 37°C no matter the external conditions. The hierarchical organisation of the blood vessel network, whose veins and arteries separate into increasingly numerous and small capillaries, allows efficient material and thermal exchanges. Microelectronic systems require effective thermoregulation in order not to overheat. The size of the components, increasingly smaller, requires that the efficiency of thermo-regulation systems be further improved. To do this, why not take inspiration from our own thermo-regulation? Thus, an algorithm making it possible to optimise the size and organisation of the channels of a heat exchanger was developed taking inspiration from the vascular system. The arrangement obtained makes it possible, in the tested case, to reduce the maximum temperature by 24°C compared to a classic organisation of parallel channels.

  • Biomimétisme, détection et traitement de l'information | Bioxegy

    Biomimétisme : la question de la détection et du traitement des informations est centrale dans de nombreuses industries, notamment celles de la mobilité. Le biomimétisme est un outil de conception idéal, qui repose sur l'intelligence des systèmes d'appréhension et de communication naturels. Biomimicry, detection and information processing: shaping the intelligent systems of the future. Across industries, especially in mobility, the trend is toward empowerment and connectivity. Infrastructure, furniture, equipment, household appliances, vehicles, planes, drones, trains or metros: systems must be ever more intelligent, connected, responsive and reliable. Depending on the industry and the context considered, they must be able to detect and interpret an environment, understand or anticipate an ongoing phenomenon or measure physical data with precision, including in the event of partial failure. Manufacturers, whoever they may be, are therefore developping all kinds of sensors, particularly optical or reflective. And for the information collected to have value, it must obviously be processed and induced an adequate and rapid response from the system and its calculation units, particularly for embedded systems in the mobility sector. Signal processing methods, the algorithms that govern them, memory management and calculation speed are quickly becoming technological issues. These systems and intelligences will also be the subject of intense competition. How can we increase the multisensorality and reliability of systems and develop new types of sensors? How to improve detection skills? How to develop fast and simple artificial intelligence? Information management was not invented by man. Nature is much more experienced and can offer many particularly interesting lessons. Nature orchestrates complex ecosystems. To interact, species must understand the environment around them and therefore analyse the information they perceive. Hearing, sight, touch, sensitivity to magnetic fields, chemoreceptors: the intelligence of perception methods is almost infinite. Processing complex signals, correlating them and making appropriate decisions is the most common activity in all living species. Each individual has a nervous system and a brain that allows them to respond to complex, sometimes unprecedented, situations to ensure their daily survival. The processing of information is not an animal monopoly, since it is also carried out in the plant world. Natural treatment principles and systems are highly effective, regardless of the neuronal capacities of the species studied. They are both simple and sophisticated, extremely efficient and fundamentally sober in their design and consumption. A specialist in the field, Bioxegy explains to you why and how biomimicry is a source of solutions and new approaches for designing the detection and information processing systems of the future. Here we provide you with a selection of particularly evocative examples. The human vision: optimising the reaction speed of autonomous embedded systems. Traditional methods of processing information involve analysing the perceived image, pixel by pixel. Their reactivity remains relative. These techniques can be replaced by an approach inspired by the human “retina-cortex” binary. It invites us to no longer study the entirety of each image but to record modifications of certain global characteristics such as hue, speed or direction. This type of processing makes it possible to quickly eliminate irrelevant elements such as buildings or trees on the side of the road or an object moving away from the vehicle. Inspired by human vision , the French company Prophesee has designed vision systems offering machines with reactivity that is close to ours. This technology is based on the observation of events rather than images. More energy efficient and multifunctional, this bio-inspired system finds applications in many sectors : from automobiles to health, including robotics and industrial assembly. Prophesee has a string of international awards: the company was nominated for the Silicon 60 Class of the American magazine EE Times for the third consecutive year in 2019 as well as winning the Top Innovation 2019 prize from inVISION magazine. Crédits images : © Prophesee Dragonflies: optimise anticipation of trajectories and detection of obstacles. In the field of mobility, autonomous vehicles, trains, or drones must be able to understand their environment. To do this, algorithms must be able to analyse the reality of a given situation. Intelligent, they must be able to anticipate the trajectories of other objects. In the case of land mobility: other cars, pedestrians, cyclists for example. Even if it is a faculty mastered by human beings, we are far from being the most gifted in this area. Many insects are much more reactive and clever than we are. They could inspire new methods of developping algorithms. The dragonfly is a formidable predator: its success rate is estimated at 95% (compared to 50% for the white shark). It has 360° vision and an exceptional reaction time of 30 milliseconds. It is especially impressive with its ability to follow its prey, notably flies, midges and mosquitoes, and to anticipate their trajectories to better catch them in mid-flight. This biological model of the dragonfly turns out to be less complex to study than that of humans and the still unknown mechanisms of their brain. Researchers from the universities of Lund in Sweden and Adelaide in Australia therefore looked at the insect to understand its ability to detect movements and anticipate trajectories in order to replicate it within artificial neural networks. They designed an autonomous robot to test their innovation which would optimise the analysis of the trajectories of objects tracked in the vehicle environment. This technology will open the way to a better reaction to incidents and risky situations and the possibility of creating better maneuvers to avoid obstacles or other vehicles.

How to prioritise information in a dense data flow? This is particularly the case in the field of mobility, for which it is important to develop rapid analysis systems capable of detecting collisions. The prioritisation of perceived information is a specialty of nature, which must solicit the nervous systems of animals as little as possible to guarantee low energy consumption. Here too, biomimicry can provide intelligent answers! Let's look at the locust: this insect has the particularity of being able to move in swarms. Some clouds of locusts even reach more than 40 million individuals per km²! Despite this incredible density, the risk of collision between individuals is extremely low. It is clear that the locust's ability to avoid its congeners is extremely perfected and very rationaliqed, as the insect must react quickly by means of a nervous system that is infinitely simple compared to the human brain. How do they avoid the collisions? The locust has a giant neuron inside its brain, responsible for controlling the insect. The visual stimuli perceived by the locust generate electrical potentials travelling along the optic nerve to the giant neuron. This acts as a filter: for the vision of a locust, objects or congeners flying on a collision course generate a greater electrical potential than congeners flying in parallel. These strong signals inducing higher voltage manage to pass through the giant neuron to reach the brain. Other signals are filtered and neglected. Thus, the locust is only concerned with a small number of elements and obstacles. The others are ignored automatically. By studying the functioning of this neuron, researchers at the University of Lincoln have developped a fast and economical sensor for autonomous vehicles. Particularly useful research for developping algorithms capable of acting in traffic-laden environments or quite simply for de-saturating embedded system computers. Crédits images : ©Bilal Tarabey / AFP © Klaus Rudloff - www.aquaportail.com The elephant fish: ultra-sophisticated detection in disturbed environments thanks to the electric field. The elephant fish (Gnathonemus petersii) is a nocturnal fish found in African rivers. It evolves in particularly murky environments, turbulent and dark waters. Despite everything, it is quite capable of spotting its prey and its peers. Its detection method is based on an electric field that it produces by muscular contraction. It then perceives the slightest variation in this electric field thanks to its electro-receptors to locate its prey or its peers. Inspired by this electrical sense, the French company Elwave was able to develop a set of sensors allowing the detection and electromagnetic characterisation in real time of all types of objects at 360°. Already used to guide underwater robots or detect buried objects, this technology can considerably reduce the risk of blind spots and poor visibility for a vehicle in circulation. Crédits images : © Elwave The nictitating membranes of camelids: ensuring the cleaning of sensors There is little point in developping high-performance and sophisticated sensors if they become clogged and blind in poor weather conditions. Here is an example that Bioxegy worked on, in the automotive sector. Current cleaning systems, which are nozzles similar to windshield nozzles, often require a lot of water and require very regular maintenance, which is impossible to carry out over long journeys. Consumption has even been estimated at 100 L/h in snowy weather! Faced with this problem with one of its clients, Bioxegy turned to camelids, camels and dromedaries. These desert mammals must confront the aridity of their environment and face particularly intense sandstorms. They still manage to clean their eyes of impurities and grains of sand. They owe this very particular ability to their nictitating membranes, transparent third eyelids which ensure the protection of the eyeball as well as its cleaning. This "biological system" is particularly effective because it minimises the use of the tear glands which lubricate the cleaning action. Inspired by this principle, Bioxegy's teams were able to imagine a mechatronic cleaning device for the optical sensors of autonomous vehicles, saving water and energy!

This is the question that arises for autonomous vehicles whose guidance is done by GPS. Indeed, this system presents certain limitations, apart from the quantity of infrastructure necessary for its operation, such as its resolution varying from 5 to 15 meters or its sensitivity to storms or fog. The democratisation of autonomous means of transport, particularly in certain regions of the world, could quickly mean that a particular vehicle must find its way by itself without using GPS. But, what if the answer came from ants? Desert ants (Cataglyphis) have an exceptional ability to position themselves in space. They are able to find their way without resorting to phenomena, these chemical receptors normally used by other species of ants. Their positionning technique is based on a triple strategy: they study the polarisation of sunlight, measure the distance by optical flow and count their steps. Researchers from the National Center of Scientific Research and the University of Aix-Marseille , at the Institute of Movement Sciences - Étienne Jules Mayer (ISM) have designed the Antbot robot, directly inspired by these desert ants. Antbot replicates the navigation stratagem of ants and is able to return to its starting point after a random exploration of 14 meters within one centimeter. Note here that this technology requires very low computing capacity, therefore considerable savings in equipment, weight and energy. This technique could inspire other navigation technologies in many areas, notably mobility, and lead to simple and efficient equipment.

  • Biomimétisme & Lightweight Design | Bioxegy

    Biomimétisme : optimiser le rapport poids/résistance est un défi de taille pour de nombreuses industries, afin de réduire l'impact environnemental et énergétique de leurs produits et technologies. Le biomimétisme est un outil de conception particulièrement armé pour y répondre ! Biomimicry & lightweight design: a winning bet The challenge is almost universal. It concerns all industries: to produce better, to rationalise the use of materials and to reduce the environmental impact of a product or component, we must be able to think of intelligent structures, best combining the weight/resistence ratio. This challenge is particularly exacerbated in aeronautics and automotive industries, that are in the spotlight and have to reduce the consumption of their products as well as their CO2 emissions. An objective which sometimes seems contradictory in relation to market trends, in particular because of the complexity of the systems: in Europe, the weight of vehicles has increased by 60% since 1960. How can we design structures, or shape and use materials that are lighter and just as robust? Biomimicry is an ideal response as it is the c hampion of lightweight design and one that has already proven itself in this area! ©Airbus | P.Masclet / master films A specialist in the field, Bioxegy explains why and how biomimicry is an essential design tool in terms of lightweight design and provides you with a selection of particularly evocative examples. Nature, champion of lightness and minimal effort To hunt, feed or defend themselves, to cope with environmental hazards, living species must balance mobility, robustness, lightness and flexibility as best they can. Evolution has also equipped them with the best anatomical principles to rationalise energy and material consumption. Their organisation is therefore based on a design which must guarantee the best structural properties while ensuring material sobriety. Nothing is left to chance. Nature has developped particularly intelligent stratagems or materials and unlimited know-how to optimise the relationship between mass and robustness. The architectures are carefully crafted at every scale, from millimeters to nanometers. Adaptive, these composite materials and living structures often fulfill several functions at the same time: lightness, thermal or acoustic resistance, elasticity, waterproofing or even thermo-regulation. In certain species, we even observe remarkable faculties of resilience and self-repair. Plant fiber: between flexibility, rigidity and lightness Remember the famous fable “The Oak and the Reed” by La Fontaine. The plant fiber of plants, a true composite formed of rigid crystalline zones and soft amorphous zones, is a naturally light and incredibly flexible structure. It absorbs shocks without breaking. In the design of a vehicle or an airplane, for example, engineers have for years favored steel or aluminum. Biomimicry could make it possible to explore effective alternatives. In Slovakia, an inventor has created a composite bicycle frame formed from a bidirectional fabric of bamboo fibers. In addition to being light, flexible and resistant, bamboo grows quickly and stores carbon, which makes it a renewable material of quality. After numerous tests, the verdict is clear: the bamboo frame absorbs shocks better than a classic steel frame and does so without breaking. The bamboo structure could very well revolutionise the structures of many components in different industries, starting with those of mobility. Bird anatomy: the necessary search for lightness One of the greatest prowess imagined by nature, the one that has fiilled entire generations of inventor's dreams, is the flight of birds. To be able to fly, sometimes over long distances, birds must have particularly light anatomies to minimise effort and energy expenditure. Their bone structure is therefore of obvious interest to analyse. Let's travel to the Amazon rainforest: the toucan is a remarkable and colourful bird. Its beak is especially impressesive compared to its size. It measures almost a third of the animal. Despite this imposing volume, it only represents one twentieth of the total mass of the toucan: practical for flying . It must, at the same time, be resistant to allow the bird to defend itself and hunt. The compromise between lightness and strength is achieved thanks to a sandwich structure. The internal structure is spongy, light and composed of closed cell foam. It helps cushion and dissipate shocks. This internal part is surrounded by strong and dense external membranes, made up of hexagonal plates of keratin, overlapping and glued together by organic glue. Enough to improve the robustness of the entire beak. Toucan beak Toucan Interior toucan beak Even more surprising, this beak also fulfills a central functionality for the toucan's body: it allows it to regulate its body temperature above 16°C through a particularly effective heat dissipation mechanism. Particularly optimised to absorb high energy shocks, this bio-composite nozzle can therefore inspire new mechanical structures to improve numerous products or components, from vehicles to airplanes, including sporting goods, and construction elements in construction, for example. Note that birds are not the only ones with an anatomy designed to optimise the weight/resistance ratio. This is also the case for many land and sea animals, such as the cuttlefish! Natural materials: teachings of insects and shellfish On a finer scale, natural materials, such as those of insects, crustaceans and shellfish, have already enabled researchers to create new materials that are both light and resistant. Here are some particularly surprising examples. Arthropods form a group of animals characterised by their segmented bodies. They include insects and crustaceans with a shell, an exoskeleton, called a cuticle. It is very resistant and represents a line of defense for the animal. It absorbs shocks that may occur to protect the internal body. It owes its robustness to an alternation of flexible and rigid layers. A team from the Wyss Institute at Harvard University in the United States has succeeded in reproducing these micro-structural and multi-layer properties to develop a material as hard and tenacious as aluminum, but twice as light. This bio-plastic was named “Shrilk”. Composed of chitin, a flexible and resistant natural material, and fibroin silk proteins created by many insects, Shrilk is a natural, biocompatible and biodegradable compound.

In more than fifty years, its quantity has increased from 38kg to more than 180kg on average per car. A trend which will continue in future to reach 250kg by 2028. Thanks to its mechanical properties comparable to those of aluminum, its superior lightness and its recyclability, Shrilk is agreat alternative which could, in the long term, replace it! It could be used on a large scale in many industries. Renewable and mass-producible, it is perfectly compatible with additive manufacturing. Mother-of-pearl: toughness and thermal resistance In many industries, components are subjected to high temperatures. A significant technical challenge. Because at high temperatures, the mechanical properties of metals deteriorate , making them unusable. The materials most used today to overcome this problem are ceramics , known for their strong resistance to hightemperatures. They are unfortunately very fragile , particularly in the face of the propagation of cracks. The world of biomimicry has in-depth knowledge: it is a problem often encountered in living things which offers us a powerful source of inspiration. Abalones are marine molluscs with shells. Its natural mother-of-pearl has a truly outstanding multi-layer microstructure. Several French laboratories came together to study it. Thanks to this biological model, they managed to create a real artificial mother-of-pearl ten times more tenacious than conventional ceramics. This new ceramic can make it possible to reduce the size and therefore the mass of different ceramic parts. Crédits images : ©Sylvain Deville, Florian Bouville, LSFC Algorithms inspired by bone growth: optimise the design structures Biomimicry can go even further. Because in addition to being useful as a model for the creation of new materials, nature can inspire design algorithms. Researchers and engineers sought to create new, more resistant, resource-efficient and lightweight structures, as well as innovative design methods inspired by life. Here is a relevant example. A new 3D design algorithm was created by the companies Autodesk and APWorks to design internal partitions for the Airbus A320. These partitions, which separate the different parts of the cabin and support the crew members' seats, are 65% lighter than existing structures. This software borrows from the principles of bone growth in which the regions most subject to mechanical stress are the most full and dense. The design algorithm tests a multitude of distinct structural configurations to select the least resource-intensive, while still meeting established constraints. The structure is thus optimised on the macro scale and on the micro scale. Such an algorithm makes it possible to minimise the mass and materials of a structure while maintaining strength and robustness. Applied to structural design, its potential is immense, in various industries.
