Diatom-Inspired Structural Adaptation According to Mode Shapes: A Study on 3D Structures and Software Tools
Simone Andresen,
Ahmad Burhani Ahmad Basri
Abstract:Diatoms captivate both biologists and engineers with their remarkable mechanical properties and lightweight design principles inherent in their shells. Recent studies have indicated that diatom frustules possess optimized shapes that align with vibrational modes, suggesting an inherent adaptation to vibratory loads. The mode shape adaptation method is known to significantly alter eigenfrequencies of 1D and 2D structures to prevent undesired vibration amplitudes. Leveraging this insight, the diatom-inspired app… Show more
