Mechanical design of the echinoid test and its biomimetic potentialities
Resumen
Los equinoides, conocidos como erizos de mar, son invertebrados que pueblan los mares desde finales del Ordovícico. Durante su evolución, se sometieron a una radiación adaptativa relevante que condujo a una variedad de formas y estilos de vida especializados. La mayor parte del éxito evolutivo de los equinoides se debe sin duda al empleo estratégico de su endoesqueleto, con especial referencia a la estructura coherente de la capa de la prueba adaptada para resistir las tensiones bióticas y abióticas relacionadas con los entornos marinos. Esta estructura optimizada, que minimiza tanto la energía como los materiales empleados, también podría representar un modelo ideal para transferir soluciones funcionales bioinspiradas a construcciones de edificios y diferentes sectores industriales. La presente contribución pretende proporcionar una breve descripción de la adaptación morfofuncional estratégica equinoide de la prueba y su potencial en el campo biomimético.
