Course:

631 Continuum Models in Biomedical Engineering (3)

Suh

Prerequisite: ENGR 243, ENGR 344, BMEN 330

The course begins with a presentation of the kinematics of continuous media and elementary tensor manipulations. We then cover the conservation principles of mass, linear momentum, angular momentum, and energy. Additional topics include the formulation of constitutive laws, continuum models in electrodynamics, and simple descriptions of piezoelectric materials. These concepts will be applied to fundamental problems in bio-solid mechanics, bio-fluid mechanics, and bio-electromagnetism.
