“…In the inner part of the prosthesis, which is one of the main contributions of this work, an internal biomimetic structure was incorporated (not considered in any prosthesis); that is, it resembles the internal structure of a real breast, since the internal structure directly affects the mechanical behavior of the prosthesis [15]. Biomimetic endeavors to understand how life functions on different levels, imitating the structures and organisms found in nature with the aim of creating new structures, new materials, and new products-based mainly on nature [40][41][42][43]. There are different structures in the breast that provide support to the mammary gland.…”

This work presents the design of a new breast prosthesis using the biomimetic technique for cases of complete mastectomy to address the problem of the increasing number of women diagnosed with breast cancer in Mexico who are candidates for a mastectomy. The designed prosthesis considers the morphology of a real breast regarding its internal structure to obtain authentic mobility and feel. In order to accomplish this, a model was obtained in 3D CAD using a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) that can be scalable without losing its qualities, and which can be used in any type of patient; afterwards, a finite element model was developed and a static analysis performed with suggested load cases to evaluate the sensitivity and naturalness of the prosthesis; and finally, a modal analysis was conducted. The results obtained in displacements and in distribution of stress for the load cases assessed are consistent with those of a real breast: there were smooth contours and there was natural mobility in the prosthesis designed by means of the biomimetic technique.

“…The algorithm in BioTRIZ can be divided into six stages, and each stage can be defined by using relevant TRIZ tools [23,24]. In Stage 1, the algorithm defines the main function requirement of the device in a standard TRIZ form.…”

“…In Stage 6, the algorithm finds a combination of affordable parameters for a biomimetics device. BioTRIZ also has four design axioms, namely, axiom of simplification, axiom of interpretation, axiom of ideal result, and axiom of contradiction [24], which are usually applied in conjunction with the algorithm.…”

Biological knowledge is becoming an important source of inspiration for developing creative solutions to engineering design problems and even has a huge potential in formulating ideas that can help firms compete successfully in a dynamic market. To identify the technologies and methods that can facilitate the development of biologically inspired creative designs, this research briefly reviews the existing biological-knowledge-based theories and methods and examines the application of biological-knowledge-inspired designs in various fields. Afterward, this research thoroughly examines the four dimensions of key technologies that underlie the biologically inspired design (BID) process. This research then discusses the future development trends of the BID process before presenting the conclusions.

Doxorubicin as a therapeutic drug is used in several human pathologies related to cancer. It has however some side effects that needs to be understood and controlled. This article discusses some applications using single-walled carbon nanotubes as carriers, making a molecular approach for a better understanding of clinical toxicological development. Finally, the general principles of nanoethics and its regulation as well as a bio-inspired design for a better control, is described.
