Bacterial Flagellum Demonstrates the Explanatory and Predictive Power of Engineering Models
Dean Schulz investigated the design of the flagellum with a method that could be described as groundbreaking.
Studies on Labrid Fish Confirm Operational Gravity Well Model for Adaptation
The extent to which the authors recognize the implications of their conclusions is difficult to say.
Engineering Better Explains Adaptation than Evolutionary Theory
The genetic variation in any species is confined to a limited set of variables such as a finch beak’s thickness.
How Engineers Helped Save Biology from Evolutionary Theory
Design motifs such as four-bar linkages and control systems must meet exacting requirements whether implemented in a space shuttle or a fish.
