SPECIAL TOPICS IN BIOMECHANICS

KINES 951

Seminar topics in field of biomechanics.

BME 315

An introduction to the mechanical behavior of biological tissues and systems. Specific topics include: structure and function of biological tissues, mechanical properties of biological tissues, and analysis of specific tissues (i.e. bone, muscle, and soft connective tissues).

ME 601

Advanced topics of special interest in various areas of Mechanical Engineering, such as vibrations, balancing, lubrication and wear, special manufacturing processes, automation, energy systems, etc.

BME/ME 615

Focus on solid mechanics of prominent musculoskeletal and cardiovascular tissues. Their normal and pathological behaviors (stiffness, strength, relaxation, creep, adaptive remodeling, etc.) in response to physiologic loading will be examined and quantified.

BME 602

Special topics in biomedical engineering for graduate students or both graduate and undergraduate students together.
