A Natureza é composta por estruturas, formas, sistemas, cores e até padrões que podem proporcionar ao design referências úteis e precisas, para que este consiga tornar os seus produtos e processos ecologicamente sustentáveis, indo de encontro com as necessidades ambientais que a sociedade humana atualmente se depara. A disciplina que utiliza estes fundamentos define-se pelo nome de Biomimética, temática escolhida para abordagem deste estudo. Partindo da região de Aveiro, e em específico a escolha da Ria, este espaço apresenta-se como um pretexto para a criação de uma embarcação Biomimética que funcione através do esforço físico do utilizador, revelando-se na hipótese de investigação proposta por este trabalho. O estudo incide sobre conceitos e definições em relação à Biomimética, bem como a ecologia, sustentabilidade, ergonomia e mercado, abordando uma base teórica fundamental para o estudo do tema proposto. A esse nível aprofundou-se questões relacionadas à construção de uma embarcação tendo em conta três pilares que se considera fundamentais: a inspiração das formas de diversos animais, e ainda a sua propulsão, o movimento mais adequado para este produto; finalizando com o estudo do mercado na pesquisa de referências reais na procura da forma. O resultado deste estudo culmina na realização de um protótipo à escala real em fibra de vidro, com o intuito de demonstrar o seu funcionamento, constatando a viabilidade na sua forma de deslocação.

The crystallization of hydroxyapatite (HA) in aqueous solution can be described by the mechanism ACP → OCP → HA. In this work, it was studied the influence of K+, Mg2+, SO4 2- AND CO3 2- ions in the formation of ACP and in its conversion to OCP, using biomimetic coatings on metallic substrates of commercially pure titanium (Ti c.p.). The results showed that Mg2+ and CO3 2- ions favored both the formation of ACP and its conversion to OCP. Differently, K+ and SO4 2- ions did not influence the formation of ACP and, consequently, interfered in the conversion to OCP.

Physics governs all working patterns of the universe and could not be otherwise in a biological environment. Living things depend directly on laws and physical models to compose their body structure, allow its survival in certain environments, communication between individuals and groups and also to establish a complex sensorial system that allows interaction with the environment that surrounds them. With the advancement of science and technology, new ideas are required, and thus, many researchers began to turn their attention to those systems found in nature, as these systems often present practical solutions and with maximum efficiency. This imitation of biological systems, applied in creating innovative technological resources, is called Biomimetics. To study the biological systems based on physical concepts is essential the creation of models. These allow the distinction of the effects of the issue really essential and may be ignored side effects that do not have an effective participation in the phenomenon being analyzed. In this Work Completion of course will be studied the phenomenon of countercurrent heat exchangers, present in various situations of nature, focusing on their participation in the legs of birds, also the balance of certain birds that are supported on one leg and possible inspiration of these phenomena in the fields of engineering. Also included are videos that allow better understanding of the studied subjects

Advanced Layering composite resins can be facilitated by a technique called "Lingual Matrix", where a guide is made of elastomer by molding a previously waxed tooth or sculped in an intraoral test drive restoration. This technique has many advantages to sophisticated layering, facilitation stratification, anatomic construcrion and the stages of finishing and polishing. However, in some clinical situations, the unfolding of the steps to obtains this matrix can be time consuming or even infeasible. To facilitate the achievement of this apparatus, a technique was idealized allowing significant reducrion in clinical time. This matrix, called the "BRB Matrix" is widly discussed in a didactic and clinical manner in this article, presenting its advantages in clinical cases where it is imperative to use a guide for conduction a controlled layering. The simplicity of this approach, as well as reduced clinical time and finacial costs turn it feasible in an everyday clinical practice.

The expressive possibilities within the field of surface design come up with increasingly larger with the emergence of technologies that allow the construction of forms and structures of high complexity such as three-dimensional printing. Establishing a relationship between design and complex systems, this work seeks to address the significant interrelationship of new paradigms of science, designed from concepts such as chaos, complexity and self-organization along with the cyber and parametric design, assuming thus the consequent impact of these in the creation and construction of process surfaces. Starting from the investigation of the applicability of the aforementioned conceptual bases, will be exemplified prospects of surface, produced in the first instance through computer interfaces, assigning the emergence of new creative processes and technology. Furthermore, elucidating biomimetics and its importance in the design of the design as a means of inspiration in complex systems of nature.

El laboreo de conservación requiere el diseño de herramientas de labranza que cumplan criterios de calidad de la labor, resistencia al desgaste y reducción del consumo energético (debido fundamentalmente a la adherencia suelo/herramienta). La biomimética es la ciencia que refiere al estudio de la estructura y la función de los sistemas biológicos como modelos para el diseño y fabricación de materiales y máquinas, en un proceso de ingeniería inversa en que el ser humano saca provecho de los procesos evolutivos de la naturaleza. En este trabajo de revisión, 1998-2013, se describen las respuestas adaptativas de diversos seres vivos al problema de la adherencia, y se analiza el caso concreto de optimización de una vertedera, un brazo de subsolador y un disco de corte empleando modelos numéricos y criterios biomiméticos. En todos los casos las etapas llevadas a cabo por distintos investigadores son: formulación del modelo de elementos finitos del apero, para posteriormente (en función de las condiciones de contorno) y de propiedades del suelo, obtener los resultados de la simulación. Por último se verifica experimentalmente con datos reales (sólo en dos de los tres ejemplos). Como resultado, comprobamos que en el caso del disco de corte la tensión total que soporta el material se reduce en un 34% con un diseño optimizado, mientras que en el caso del subsolador biomimético la resistencia horizontal y vertical se reducen en un 7% y 24% respectivamente.
