BE 3920 - Biomaterials and Biomechanics Joint Laboratory

1 lecture hours 2 lab hours 2 credits
In this course, students investigate practical aspects of biomaterials and biomechanics. To the extent practical, biomaterials and biomechanic topics are investigated concurrently. Specific topics investigated typically include anthropometry, electromyography, human mechanical power and energy output, gate and ground reaction force measurements, biomechanical analysis of domestic and occupational activities, tissue stress-strain relationships, corrosion, chemical stability and industrial scale medical device production processes. This course includes one or more field trips to biomaterials and/or biomechanics related industrial and/or research facilities and/or a biomedical engineering related conference or trade show.
