This paper presents results of the investigation of two biological role models, the shield bug (Graphosomaitalicum) and the carnivorous Waterwheel plant (Aldrovandavesiculosa). The aim was to identify biological construction and movement principles as inspiration for technical, deployable systems. The subsequent processes of abstraction and simulation of the movement and the design principles are summarized, followed by results on the mechanical investigations on various combinations of fibers and matrices with regard to taking advantage of the anisotropy of fiber-reinforced plastics (FRPs). With the results gained, it was possible to implement defined flexible bending zones in stiff composite components using one composite material, and thereby to mimic the biological role models. First small-scale demonstrators for adaptive façade shading systems – Flectofold and Flexagon – are proving the functionality.

Recently the demands for miniature component of varying materials have been rapidly increasing in aerospace industry. Carbon fiber reinforced plastics is widely used as functional or structural material due to its superior material properties. It also is one of the difficult to machine materials because of the poor machinability. This paper presents an experimental study on micro milling of carbon fiber reinforced plastics with self-developed polycrystalline diamond tool. Cutting force and specific cutting energy are analyzed. The minimum chip thickness and carbon fiber diameter are found to have great effect on the cutting force signature peak. Tool wear mechanism of polycrystalline diamond tool also is investigated.
