Features: This book is part of the technical foundation content in design basics and can replace the "Engineering Theory" textbook. For many years, the author has been striving to find teaching methods suitable for the characteristics of the design major, while also conducting extensive exploration and experiments on how to help students enjoyably master engineering principles. In this book, the author boldly attempts a completely new teaching format: when opening this book, readers may be surprised to find that there are no rigid engineering principles or complex professional concepts, but instead, a series of vivid topics. It is hoped that this book can be used for discussion with everyone, while also enabling a broader readership to better utilize it. The author tries to take students back to the mysterious world of nature in this book. There, the perfect match between the internal structure and function of every natural object can serve as the best model for design. The meaning of learning from nature is more about helping students understand a principle: as design professionals, we must learn to utilize everything provided by the environment for re-creation, and learning from nature is just one important design approach. As each topic in the book unfolds, readers will also discover that for every small issue, they must make corresponding preparations. This book presents a warm and natural design form to readers, aiming to eliminate some students' aversion to engineering theory and increase its acceptability. Additionally, during use, the examples in the book are just meant to spark ideas, and readers can flexibly adjust the topics based on their actual situations.
