➡️New episode with Hamed Rajabi discussing mechanical intelligence. One of the questions: If there is no self-healing, how we can design intelligent structures to deflect cracks, drawing inspiration from insect wings.

I enjoyed this conversation with Hamed Rajabi @harajabi_@LSBU on mechanical intelligence, insect wings, metamaterial, crack deflection. What's particularly intriguing is the translation of most of these designs into real-world use cases.

The study validates the hypothesis that the basal complex in insect wings plays a crucial role in wing shape changes during flight. @lsbu_mi, @LSBU, @kieluni, @harajabi_

Excited to host students from Coombe Academic Trust and show them Biomimetics and design-based engineering @lsbu_mi. They met with professors, toured the facilities, and participated in hands-on activities. An exciting showcase of the possibilities engineering @LSBU offers!!
Heartiest congratulations to @ben@Joe & @Haider for winning 1st, 2nd & 3rd positions @LSBU ignite 23! @lsbu_mi grabbed all the awards!!
Despite tough competition, their ideas rose to the challenge and snatched victory!
Can't wait to see what they accomplish next!

It was such a joy to have Prof. Zhendong Dai, @NUAA_official in our Lab. It was great to share our research and show him around. Nothing beats the feeling of connecting with others in the scientific community. #collaboration#science#lablife#LSBU🧪🔬😊
It was great meeting prospective #BEng students at @LSBU#OpenDay#TasterDay. We shared our work on bioinspired engineering @lsbu_mi. Here students built a dragonfly-inspired flapping-wing mechanism for drones and tested the different designs. #TeamLSBU#RisewithLSBU
We are recruiting a new bioengineering PhD position in early stage cancer diagnostics!
