3.00 Credits
This course is intended to provide engineering students with an introduction to musculoskeletal biomechanics. At the end of the semester, students should have a working knowledge of the special considerations necessary to apply engineering principles to the human body. The course will focus on the biomechanics of injury since understanding injury will require developing an understanding of normal biomechanics. Prerequisites: DCGN421 Statics, EGGN320 Mechanics of Materials, EGGN325/BELS325 Introduction to Biomedical Engineering (or instructor permission). 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
Prosthetics and implants for the musculoskeletal and other systems of the human body are becoming increasingly sophisticated. From simple joint replacements to myoelectric limb replacements and functional electrical stimulation, the engineering opportunities continue to expand. This course builds on musculoskeletal biomechanics and other BELS courses to provide engineering students with an introduction to prosthetics and implants for the musculoskeletal system. At the end of the semester, students should have a working knowledge of the challenges and special considerations necessary to apply engineering principles to augmentation or replacement in the musculoskeletal system. Prerequisites: Musculoskeletal Biomechanics (EGGN/BELS425 or EGGN/BELS525) 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
Computational Biomechanics provides and introduction to the application of computer simulation to solve some fundamental problems in biomechanics and bioengineering. Musculoskeletal mechanics, medical image reconstruction, hard and soft tissue modeling, joint mechanics, and inter-subject variability will be considered. An emphasis will be placed on understanding the limitations of the computer model as a predictive tool and the need for rigorous verification and validation of computational techniques. Clinical application of biomechanical modeling tools is highlighted and impact on patient quality of life is demonstrated. Prerequisites: EGGN413 Computer Aided Engineering, EGGN325/BELS325 Introduction to Biomedical Engineering. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
The acquisition, processing, and interpretation of biological signals presents many unique challenges to the Biomedical Engineer. This course is intended to provide students with an introduction to, and appreciation for, many of these challenges. At the end of the semester, students should have a working knowledge of the special considerations necessary to gathering and analyzing biological signal data. Prerequisites: EGGN250 MEL I, DCGN381 Introduction to Electrical Circuits, Electronics, and Power, EGGN420/BELS420 Introduction to Biomedical Engineering (or permission of instructor). 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will discuss methods for building and solving both continuous and discrete mathematical models. These methods will be applied to population dynamics, epidemic spread, pharmacokinetics and modeling of physiologic systems. Modern Control Theory will be introduced and used to model living systems. Some concepts related to self-organizing systems will be introduced. Prerequisite: MATH225. 3 hours lecture, 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
goal of this course is to familiarize students with the fundamental phenomena involved in wastewater treatment processes (theory) and the engineering approaches used in designing such processes (design). This course will focus on the physical, chemical and biological processes applied to liquid wastes of municipal origin. Treatment objectives will be discussed as the driving force for wastewater treatment. Prerequisite: ESGN353 or consent of instructor. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
Pilot course or special topics course. Topics chosen from special interests of instructor(s) and student( s). Usually the course is offered only once. Prerequisite: Instructor consent. Variable credit: 1 to 6 credit hours. Repeatable for credit under different titles.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is intended to provide graduate engineering students with an introduction to musculoskeletal biomechanics. At the end of the semester, students should have a working knowledge of the special considerations necessary to apply engineering principles to the human body. The course will focus on the biomechanics of injury since understanding injury will require developing an understanding of normal biomechanics. Prerequisites: DCGN241 Statics, EGGN320 Mechanics of Materials, EGGN325/BELS325 Introduction to Biomedical Engineering (or instructor permission). 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
