    Introduction to conservation laws and thermodynamic principles of continuum mechanics with application to tissues of the musculoskeletal and cardiovascular systems. Topics cover nonlinear and anisotropic behaviors of solids and fluids. Emphasis on the application of hyperelastic constitutive formulations to determination of stress and strain fields in deformations of calcified tissues (for example, cortical and trabecular bone), soft tissues (for example, ligament, cartilage, cornea, intervertebral disc, left ventricle, aorta), and biological fluids (for example, mucus, synovial fluid, polymer solutions). Tensor fields and indicial notation. Prerequisites: Biomedical Engineering 110L or Engineering 75L or equivalent, and Mathematics 111 or equivalent. Instructor: Setton
