The world of living nature has always been a source of many inspirations for mankind in various fields of study and practice. The contribution of some biological concepts, such as evolution, morphology, behavior of dynamic systems, and information transmission through heredity (genetics) in helping to develop new concepts and applications in various branches of science, technology, and human artefacts has a significant role, especially in has had in recent years. In the present research, various aspects of the influence of living nature and the knowledge of life have been examined after a wide review of the literature and in different categories such as biological use, inspiration in form, structure, mechanism, process, function, system, Abstract laws are classified. Descriptive-analytical research method and logical reasoning with data tools include library and citation studies. The findings of the research show that the study of the history of architecture inspired by life shows a gradual movement from biological morphology, which was a superficial similarity, to deeper aspects of biological analogies in bionic design. For this reason, bionics offers a deeper understanding of living nature.

This article takes a descriptive approach to examining the role of pergolas in urban space design and studies the challenges in designing these structures. Pergolas, as aesthetic and ecological elements, play an important role in enhancing the quality of urban life by providing shade, reducing ambient temperature, and improving environmental conditions. The use of a biomimicry approach, which is based on mimicking nature, can help in designing more efficient and sustainable pergolas. This approach, by utilizing plants such as bamboo, violet, lily, and aloe vera, can lead to beautiful shading, improved air quality, and increased social interactions. The research results indicate that incorporating biomimicry in the design and construction of pergolas can lead to more resilient and sustainable structures, enhance the well-being of citizens, and increase safety in urban environments, making pergolas key elements in designing sustainable and beautiful cities.

Biomimicry is the imitation of models, systems and elements of nature in order to solve complex human problems. Living organisms have developed appropriate structures and materials throughout geological time through natural selection. Biomimetics, inspired by biological solutions, has given rise to new technologies at the macro and nano scales. Humans have studied nature to answer the problems in our existence. The research method is descriptive-analytical with data tools including library studies and case examples. Research findings have shown that nature has solved engineering problems such as self-healing abilities, tolerance and resistance to environmental exposure, hydrophobicity, self-assembly and solar energy exploitation, that is, biomimicry is an old approach. It is, but it is new in the scientific sense and has played a role in contemporary fashion design and architecture, which has been mentioned.

The construction industry is one of the main consumers of resources and producers of waste in the world. Construction waste has a negative impact on the environment, cost and time of projects, productivity and human performance, quality, customer satisfaction, etc. Therefore, to solve this problem, a proper understanding of the latest advances and scientific discussions in the field of construction waste management is considered essential. This research deals with the precise identification of the field of construction waste management through the systematic review and study of internationally valid scientific research articles in the period of 2010 to 2019. The goals that this article pursues are: 1- Identifying the latest research directions in the topic of construction waste management, 2- Identifying the gaps in it and 3- Providing a framework to guide future research directions.

In today's world, the excessive increase in population on the one hand and the uncontrolled development of life on the other, as well as industrialization without regard to comfort and mental health, have exposed human societies to crisis; while attention to nature and its proximity to human life, as well as other effective friendships with the fields of life, have been considered in recent years, and the harmony between humans and nature (the ecosystem) formed alongside it has been given greater importance. This has a special reflection in Peter Singer's thought, the most important of which are mentioned in this article. The research method is "descriptive-analytical" which has used data collection tools including library and document studies. The research findings show that in this book, Peter Singer, with a utilitarian and rational approach, seeks to find an answer to why and how the best ethical way of life is; a world in which all people benefit most from resources.
