The aim of this work was to develop a method to record low-level sounds underwater in order to listen to possible sounds related to the gliding movement of raphid, motile diatoms, inspired by their jerky, high acceleration movements. Different techniques concerning the gathering and handling of diatoms and the possibilities of recording sounds related to their movement are presented. A model was created to get a rough estimation of the expansion speed of mucopolysaccharide filaments. In a series of initial experiments, a hydrophone was used to get an idea of the acoustic situation. Furthermore some attempts to increase the density of raphid diatoms in a given volume were made. Though with these rough measurements no sounds could be detected, alternatives and advice on how to improve the experiment for future research are provided.

Bio-inspired by compound eyes in insects, the authors identify advantages of such an optical system and propose a novel optics that combines basic principles from compound eyes with an additional technical zooming feature. The 3D-printed, bio-inspired fiber optic set-up is based on ommatidia, the small single components of compound eyes. The advantageous aspects that are transferred from the inspiring organisms are that no focusing on objects is needed and a maximum depth of focus is always achieved. Two adjustable technical features are an adjustable field of view per pixel and a zooming possibility, not found in animals. Prototypes were produced as a proof of concept. One of them was manufactured using a stereolithography 3D printer. They were positively tested with regard to the implemented features. Optional further functionalities and developments are discussed. Possible applications of the 3D-printed, bio-inspired designs are optical devices that benefit from adjusting the field of view per pixel to zooming. Suggested are novel microscopes and screens with built-in cameras enabling online eye-to-eye communication without having to concentrate on the location of a camera.

The photonic structures of butterfly wing scales are widely known to cause angle-dependent colours by light interference with nanostructures present in the wing scales. Here, we quantify the relevance of the horizontal alignment of the butterfly wing scales on the wing. The orientation-dependent reflection was measured at four different azimuth angles, with a step size of 90°, for ten samples—two of different areas of the same species—of eight butterfly species of three subfamilies at constant angles of illumination and observation. For the observed species with varying optical structures, the wing typically exhibits higher orientation-dependent reflections than the individual scale. We find that the measured anisotropy is caused by the commonly observed grating structures that can be found on all butterfly wing scales, rather than the local photonic structures. Our results show that the technique employed here can be used to quickly evaluate the orientation-dependence of the reflection and hence provide important input for bio-inspired applications, e.g., to identify whether the respective structure is suitable as a template for nano-imprinting techniques.

This chapter introduces to provide a thought model for the real speed of evolution as a combination of selective, permutative, and constructive elements. It introduces hypotheses on genetic biocommunication within and across species and mainly deals with the three types of adaptations in herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores where biocommunication is of paramount importance: adaptations in the food chain, adaptations to the environment (historical, via selection), and interspecies competition. Two major ideas are put forward in the chapter: firstly, a basic design principle in organisms which ensures that parts of the genetic code are interchangeable in single processing units that are readable across species, even across biological kingdoms. Secondly, active (subconscious) selection of probability for the sex of the offspring by parents (by females at the time of conception, by males shortly before ejaculation) combined with continuous adaptations of the genetic material in the sperm of the fathers. In this way, evolution might be speeded up to the pace we experience it in organisms with natural selection being only one important aspect. One still can only speculate about constructive elements of evolution, however, the hypotheses described in the chapter definitely provide various reasons for starting intense academic discussion. This book chapter attempts to do science in a completely new way the authors like to call neo-Aristotelian. It takes results from scientific investigations, and aims, via logical thinking and extrapolation (and sheer judging in some cases) to come up with a concise hypothesis on important elements of evolution. Various experiments, which might prove or undermine the ideas, are suggested in the course of the train of thought. The authors look forward to future developments in this field, and responses, results and reactions from fellow scientists.

This study presents the replication of a color-causing nanostructure based on the upper laminae of numerous cover scales of Morpho peleides butterfly wings and obtained solely by imprinting their upper-wing surfaces. Our results indicate that a simple casting technique using a novel integrated release agent can obtain a large positive replica using negative imprints via Polyvinylsiloxane. The developed method is low-tech and high-yield and is thus substantially easier and less expensive than previous methods. The microstructures were investigated with light microscopy, the nanostructures with both scanning and transmission electron microscopy, and the reflections with UV visible spectrometry. The influence of the release agent and the quality of the master stamp were determined by comparing measurements of the cover-scale sizes and their chromaticity values obtained by their images and with their positive imprints. The master stamp provided multiple positive replicas up to 3 cm2 in just 1 h with structural coloration effects visible to the naked eye. Thus, the developed method proves the accuracy of the replicated nanostructure and its potential industrial application as a color-producing nanostamp.

Value based science is a field that is currently being developed and that can learn from attempts in science and engineering, especially micro- and nanotribology, and vice versa. The current manuscript undertakes a transdisciplinary approach to identify commonalities between the fields and develop approaches to obtain synergistic solutions. Based on global challenges and the most pressing problems that humankind is currently facing, the methodology applies transdis-ciplinary knowledge integration and the innovision method to arrive at new, potentially disruptive recommendations. Innovision is a novel method that addresses the transdisciplinary topic without the aim of creating a new discipline and that is characterised by the development of a new framework of thinking that is the prerequisite for the provision of solutions. Results comprise learning methods for the development of global ethics, a three-gaps approach highlighting pitfalls and potentials ways to bridge gaps, and three exemplary technologies that provide tribologically optimised solutions.

Ecotribology is gaining increasing attention. Our view of the environment has changed from regarding it as a constant that provides resources and acts as a sink for waste toward a more complex view, where the environment is seen as a variable that can be influenced by our activities and on which we are utterly dependent. Ecotribology can be seen as the answer to this changed role of the environment. In the very word ecotribology economical and ecological aspects meet, and indeed the field comprises green tribology, sustainability, ecological aspects, economical aspects, environmentally compatible lubricants, environmentally friendly tribology, tribology of eco-friendly applications, tribology for energy conservation, tribology for life, and renewable energy tribology. This chapter deals with components, goals, optimization levers, challenges, and prospects of ecotribological systems and gives ample examples in which regard we can learn from living nature via biomimetic approaches to achieve efficient ecotribology, concerning materials, structures, and processes.

Heavy metal wastewater poses a threat to human life and causes significant environmental problems. Bioremediation provides a sustainable waste management technique that uses organisms to remove heavy metals from contaminated water through a variety of different processes. Biosorption involves the use of biomass, such as plant extracts and microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, algae, yeast), and represents a low-cost and environmentally friendly method of bioremediation and resource management. Biosorption-based biosynthesis is proposed as a means of removing heavy metals from wastewaters and soils as it aids the development of heavy metal nanoparticles that may have an application within the technology industry. Phytomining provides a further green method of managing the metal content of wastewater. These approaches represent a viable means of removing toxic chemicals from the effluent produced during the process of manufacturing, and the bioremediation process, furthermore, has the potential to save metal resources from depletion. Biomimetic resource management comprises bioremediation, biosorption, biosynthesis, phytomining, and further methods that provide innovative ways of interpreting waste and pollutants as raw materials for research and industry, inspired by materials, structures, and processes in living nature.

Grüne und nachhaltige Konzepte finden zusehends Eingang in die Nanotechnologie, und Chancen und Risiken für die Umwelt werden vielfältig sorgfältig abgewogen. Dieses Kapitel befasst sich mit der Erstellung eines Regelwerks für grüne und nachhaltige nanotribologische Systeme. Tribologie ist die Lehre von Reibung, Schmierung und Verschleiß, und ein Tribosystem ist ein System, in dem es Teile in relativer Bewegung gibt. Tribosysteme gibt es also sehr viele in unserer heutigen technischen Welt: Motoren, die Interaktion Autoreifen und Straße, Eislaufen, etc. Die Nanotribologie untersucht tribologisch interessante Materialien, Strukturen und Systeme mit Methoden der Nanotechnologie (z. B. hochauflösender Mikroskopie). Nanotribologische Systeme sind Tribosysteme mit funktionalen Teilen im Nanobereich (1–100 nm). Grüne nanotribologische Systeme zeichnen sich dadurch aus, dass sie entweder für grüne Technologien wichtig sind oder dass sie zum Schutz der Umwelt sowie zur Wiederherstellung bereits geschädigter Ökosysteme beitragen. Die Produzenten nachhaltiger nanotribologischer Systeme stellen sicher, dass zukünftige Generationen dieselben Chancen auf ein erfülltes Leben haben wie wir selbst, durch die Anwendung nachhaltiger Methoden, aber auch durch Minimierung der Auswirkungen auf Mensch und Umwelt. Herausforderungen, Entwicklungen und Chancen dieses neuen Wissenschaftsbereichs werden aufgezeigt und im Rahmen der gravierendsten Probleme, mit denen wir uns derzeit als Menschheit auseinandersetzen müssen, eingebettet. Fünfzehn globale Herausforderungen werden seit 1996 jährlich vom Millennium Project identifiziert. Das Millennium Projekt beinhaltet Organisationen der Vereinten Nationen, Regierungen, Unternehmen, Nichtregierungsorganisationen, Universitäten und Einzelpersonen aus mehr als 50 Ländern. Grüne nanotribologische Systeme ist von besonderer Bedeutung für die Globale Herausforderung 13 (Energie) und die Globale Herausforderung 14 (Wissenschaft und Technik). Diese beiden Herausforderungen werden im vorliegenden Kapitel ausführlicher vorgestellt und potentielle Beiträge grüner nanotribologischer Systeme zur erfolgreichen Adressierung dieser beiden Herausforderungen skizziert. Anschließend wird das Konzept nachhaltiger nanotribologischer Systeme eingeführt. Dies geschieht durch Korrelation nanotribologischer Entwicklungen mit Prinzipien der Nachhaltigkeit, die von der US-amerikanischen Biomimicry Guild eingeführt wurden. Fazit und Ausblick sowie Empfehlungen runden das Kapitel ab.
