Soft Tissue Biomechanics
Explore the fundamentals and critical applications of soft tissue mechanics. Examine continuum mechanics (kinematics, stress, balance of linear momentum, hyperelasticity), experimental and nonlinear finite element analyses of soft tissue mechanics, and relevant imaging modalities and related facilities available on campus. Only one of the following may be counted: Biomedical Engineering 384T (Topic 3), 385J (Topic: Soft Tissue Biomechanics), Engineering Mechanics 397 (Topic: Soft Tissue Biomechanics), Mechanical Engineering 385J (Topic: Soft Tissue Biomechanics).
