A COMPILATION OF BIOLOGICAL LAWS, EFFECTS, AND PHENOMENA, WITH ASSOCIATED PHYSICAL ANALOGS

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: AD0604369 | Open PDF

Abstract:

A compilation of biological laws, effects and phenomena and their associated physical analogs is presented. Information on each law, effect or phenomenon is contained in separate entries which are grouped roughly into sections by similarity of content. Entries are cross referenced by animals and plants mentioned in each entry, by sample physical devices, systems, effects or phenomena analogous to the described biological law, effect or phenomenon in each entry, and by physical class i.e., by the branch of physical science most relevant to the biological description and by physical operator i.e., by the categories of sensor, transformer, or actuator, whichever is more nearly descriptive of the entry.
