OISE 10-42186Lakshmi ReddiUniversity of Central FloridaThis is an international workshop on a paradigm-shift subject area to determine what can be learned from nature and transfer the new knowledge to technological innovations and transformative engineering applications. The invited pool of experts will address energy conservation of indoor environments in a unique way - exploiting the recent advances in the behavior of plant and skin tissues on the one hand and stabilized earth construction and sensors on the other.This workshop contributes to sustainable practices of engineering construction by developing a formal basis for using natural materials (earth-based and plant-based) in engineering construction. It also directly addresses the issue of energy, which remains one of the key socio-economic and political challenges of our times, by attempting to understand energy-efficiency in the naturally-evolved biological systems and adopt that knowledge in engineering.This workshop fulfills the program objectives of bringing together leading international (US, United Kingdom, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, India, Colombia and Venezuela) experts to combine complementary efforts and capabilities in areas of strong mutual interest.

这是一个关于范式转换主题领域的国际研讨会，旨在确定从自然中学到什么，并将新知识转化为技术创新和变革性工程应用。受邀的专家将以独特的方式解决室内环境的节能问题-一方面利用植物和皮肤组织行为的最新进展，另一方面利用稳定的地球结构和传感器。本次研讨会通过开发在工程建设中使用天然材料（土基和植物基）的正式基础，为工程建设的可持续实践做出贡献。它还直接解决了能源问题，这仍然是我们这个时代的主要社会经济和政治挑战之一，通过试图理解自然进化的生物系统中的能源效率，并在工程中采用这些知识。本次研讨会实现了将国际领先（美国、英国、德国、丹麦、瑞典、印度、哥伦比亚和委内瑞拉）专家聚集在一起的计划目标，在共同感兴趣的领域结合互补的努力和能力。
