I am exploring new approaches for integrating design and manufacturing to enable the effective use of new technologies in manufacturing. Bio-inspired design methods are proving to be very interesting and providing an effective and natural way to 'grow' designs that can be manufacturing using distributed systems over the cloud and allowing for a democratisation of manufacturing and design. These methods are being applied to general products and systems as well as aircraft structures and systems.
