Along with the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), there are many different research fields gaining importance. Because of the growing amount of data and needs for immediate access to information for dealing with the problems, different types of research fields take place within the scientific community. Internet of things (IoT) is one of them, and it enables devices to communicate with each other in order to form a general network of physical, working devices. The objective of this chapter in this manner is to provide a general discussion of using nature-inspired techniques of AI to form the future of biomedical engineering over IoT. Because it is often thought that the medical services of the future will be based on autonomous machines supported with AI and IoT, discussing such a topic by considering biomedical engineering applications will be good for the related literature.

Theoretical prediction of percolation thresholds universally applicable for various composites remains a major theoretical challenge. In the work done by Xu (2011, “Ellipsoidal Bounds and Percolation Thresholds of Transport Properties of Composites,” Acta Mech., 223, pp. 765–774), a variational method is developed to predict optimal percolation thresholds for transport properties of three dimensional composites subjected to full dispersion of fillers. In this paper, simplified formulae are provided for engineering applications of 3D composites. New formulae are derived for optimal percolation thresholds of 2D composites, i.e., laminates and thin films, and for composites containing a combination of fillers with different aspect ratios. The effects of dimensionality and waviness are especially discussed.
