Using templates and mapping strategies to support analogical transfer in biomimetic design
While biological phenomena can serve as meaningful analogies to inspire innovative
design, previous studies found that designers often use descriptions of biological
phenomena in non-analogous ways. Two experiments were conducted with novice
designers to investigate how to decrease the non-analogous use of biological phenomena
in concept generation. Properly applied, a causal relation template, developed based on
Gentner's framework of analogical reasoning, decreased participants' non-analogous …
