BMEG 28103 — Biomechanical Engineering
This course introduces basic concepts and principles of biomechanics to biomedical and other engineering students. The course topics include mechanics and materials, viscoelastic properties, bone, cartilage, ligament, tendon, muscle, cardiovascular dynamics, clinical gait analysis, etc. After taking this course, students are expected to understand the application of engineering kinetics to describe motions of human body and mechanic properties of tissues. MATLAB will be used to write and solve biomechanical static and dynamic equations. Lecture 3 hours per week. Prerequisite: BMEG 26104 , CHEM 14203 , and MATH 25004 . Pre- or corequisite: PHYS 20404 . (Typically offered: Spring and Summer)
Prerequisites: BMEG 26104, CHEM 14203, MATH 25004
