Fundamentals of Biomechanics

3 Units

Fundamentals of biomechanics will teach students how to apply basic principles of mechanics to understand, explain and model biological processes at across the relevant length-scales (cell-tissue-organ-organism), and over a broad range of physiological systems (respiratory, ocular, circulatory, and musculoskeletal). Physiology of organs and tissues that are involved in biomechanical functions will also be covered. Offered as EMAE 307 and EMAE 407 and EBME 317 . Prereq: ENGR 200 .
