Introduction to Biomechanical Engineering.

Catalog description

The course serves as an introduction to the fundamental science and engineering on which biomedical engineering is based. It covers applications of mechanical engineering principles to problems in the life sciences; transport phenomena of physiological solids and fluids; bio-signal analysis and instrumentation; bio-materials design and compatibility; principles of biomechanics and human locomotion; physiological systems modeling and control; case studies of drugs and medical products; illustrations of the product development-product testing cycle, patent protection, and FDA approval.(Elective) Prerequisites: EG3343, EG2346, and MT2332.
