Kingfisher & the Shinkansen.pptx

this presentation is based on the biomimicry of kingfisher which has inspired the bullet train. this contains 11 slides. 1st slide is of introduction part, 2nd slide is based on some basic information of kingfisher, 3rd slide is based on features of shinkansen bullet train, 4th slide is based on the application of biomimicry which is nothing but kingfisher inspired bullet train, rest of the remaining slide is based on some basic solution of before and after the apply of design of kingfisher beak, also presentation contains conclusion and reference link at the end of the presentation slide.

2. What Is meant by Biometric Design. Definition: Biometric Design refer to man made processes, devices, substances or Systems which imitate nature to develop new devices that enhance human LIFE. Through the help of biomimetic systems, scientists, researches, engineers, and business people have increasingly turned toward the nature for design and inspiration.

3. Kingfisher Kingfisher are the group of small to medium sized brightly colored birds. Large heads,(long, sharp, pointed bills) Short legs Stubby tails Something Awkward: Whenever a kingfisher dives from air into water, the result is the negligible amount of water splash, how come that is possible? What is the secret beyond that? Is there any hints? Eiji Nakatsu

4. Shinkansen Bullet Train The fastest train in the world 200 miles/hour= the maximum speed measured Located: west of Japan Introduced in early 1960’s(1964) Considered the most reliable high-speed train in the world

5. how a kingfisher inspired a bullet train In Japan, they have these very fast bullet trains. They were getting so fast that the typical bullet shape was causing a loud booming sound when these trains would exit typical train tunnels. But one of the engineers on the team trying to solve the problem was a birdwatcher. He had witnessed a kingfisher bird diving down through the air, going into the water and creating very little splash. So he thought, I wonder if I could apply this principle to the shape of the front of the bullet train. And so they did model the front of the train like the kingfisher’s face. It has a pointy part to it just like the beak of the kingfisher. And sure enough when they tried out that new model, it moved through without creating the boom. And it saved them 10-15% more energy because it was more aerodynamic.

6. Robertson said kingfishers aren’t the only birds that have inspired engineers and designers. Ideas from nature help solve human problems. Japanese researchers successfully reduced noise by modeling the front of a bullet train after a kingfisher’s head. biomimicry enables science to imitate natural designs to develop better technologies for human use.

7. Some Problems Associate with the Bullet train Noise! Every-time the train came out of the tunnel, it was produce an extremely irritating empathic bang! The change in Air Pressure It has been estimated that the resident that are one quarter a mile way could hear the noise Complain? Solution?

8. How we can mimic it? They found out the kingfisher secret move ! Answer: The Long Break They redesigned the front of the train using the beak of kingfisher as a model. Quieter Train Uses less energy More Comfortable Moves Faster Balancing the air

9. Conclusion Lots of human-beings tremendous designs are inspired by nature. Nature Answers!
