Abstract

The recent developments in the field of bio-inspired design have been inspiring greatly the direction of research in the modern times. To promote maximum efficiency in proposed solutions for modern problems, it is imperative that inspiration should be taken from natural sources, as nature has spent millions of years perfecting the organisms to deal with their various circumstances. This research area has resulted in ideal solutions to multiple problems that have the capability to be actually applied in multiple situations, hence the versatility provides for cost efficiency. Not to mention, the presence of the solution in nature allows for an easy proto type. The methodology involved in these researches is simple analyse a certain phenomenon in nature and then relate it with a problem in real life. The present study is outcome of rigorous review of literature with the help of scholarly reliable databases such as Web of Science and Google Scholar to find put the vast amount of literature. Major findings focus on the analogical aspects, hence concerned with the aspects of bio inspired design and bio computing. Microbial research has been a prime area as well to realize real life solutions of chemo-pathological problems. DNA and proteins can be better analysed for structural problems. The paper concludes with the idea that these are just some of the basic issues that can be solved through bio-inspired design where future belongs to more intricate researches.
