Design of Artificial Organs
Analysis of the design process for blood-contacting medical devices with an emphasis on ventricular assist devices. Application of computational fluid dynamics and blood rheology to computer-aided design and testing of devices using specific software programs and 3D printing of functioning prototypes. Biomedical Engineering 367 and 377T (Topic: Design of Artificial Organs) may not both be counted. Three lecture hours a week for one semester.
