ABSTRACT:
A method of determining structural data of a prototype for a lightweight technical structure by selecting shell architectures of natural bio-mineralized unicellular organisms in accordance with an aspect set very closely adapted to the lightweight structure to be produced and by directly copying and thereafter scaling their structural data to the prototype before optimizing the Prototype by perfect adaptation to the lightweight structure to be produced.
