Shape and Structure, from Engineering to Nature
Bejan, Adrian (Duke University, North Carolina)
In this groundbreaking 2000 book, Adrian Bejan shows that shape and structure spring from the struggle for better performance in both engineering and nature and that the same objectives and constraints principle applies. From heat exchangers to river channels, the book draws many parallels between the engineered and the natural world.
