Prosthetic Limbs
This paper investigates some of the advances in prosthetic limbs over the past 4 decades and summarizes some of the most significant achievements. It also predicts developments in prosthetics for the coming years, most notably the higher proliferation of direct skeletal attachment, and the use of microprocessor control to allow finely […]
The DownSpout System is a biomimetic solution that treats and stores rainwater and runoff in a similar way to a marshland or riparian edge. Through an investigation of these ecological systems in plant species, corresponding root depths, soil types, and hydrological zones, we have created a system that can be customized […]
Self-Healing Materials
This project aims to study self-organizing materials that are able to adapt their structure and associated properties in response to a changing environment. Inspired by the organization of bacterial communities, we aim to develop self-organizing, adaptive and self-healing materials that can be further used, for instance, in sensing or drug delivery.
