BME 303 - Introduction to Biomechanics (C)
Analysis of biomechanical systems at the macroscopic scale based on principles of statics, dynamics, and strength of materials. The biomedical applications of mechanics will be illustrated through analysis of the biomechanics of medical devices and implants, human body tissues, kinematics, musculoskeletal injuries, and the design application of prostheses and safety equipment. Emphasis will be placed on mechanical behavior (stress and strain), structural behavior, and injury tolerance of the human body.
