Abstract
The method describes five consecutive phases and shows reasons for iterations: In the problem definition phase, a specific (technical) problem is generalized. For the search phase, the method emphasizes the importance of formulating search terms. The analysis phase aims at identifying the underlying mechanisms of biological phenomena. In the principle phase, an abstract bio-inspired principle is developed to be detailed in the design phase.
