dc.description.abstractEcodesign is an approach to designing products with special consideration for the environmental impacts of the product’s life cycle. In a lifecycle assessment, the life cycle of a product is usually divided into procurement, manufacture, use, and disposal. Ecodesign is a growing responsibility and understanding of our ecological footprint on the planet. It is imperative to search for new productive solutions that are environmentally friendly and lead to a reduction in the consumption of materials and energy while maintaining the desired performance of the products. Bearing this in mind, additive manufacturing has the capability of producing components with the lowest amount of raw material needed and the highest geometrical complexity. This work aims to present novel bioinspired design methodologies for the production of additive manufacturing products with lower amounts of material and higher performance. The bioinspired design considers natural cellular-based concepts for the definition of novel product definitions.eng
