Biomechanik

The module is designed to provide students sound knowledge in the field of biomechanics. This course will enable student to understand the application of mechanics in modelling human body parts, the mechanobiological theories of fracture healing and the concepts behind implant development. The course is aimed for Master's students in all engineering degree programs. The course will be given in English language.

The topics covered are:

- Basic biomechanics of hard and soft tissue

- Movement kinematics, patient-monitoring

- Biomechanics of fracture healing

- Fundamentals of modelling in biomechanics

- Clinical imaging techniques

- Strategies for implant development

-  Implant-Testing
