Track 21: Biomechanical Systems and Devices

Biomechanical engineering studies the fluid dynamics, thermal transport, elastic and dynamic process, and materials in living systems. Research efforts focus on development of fundamental and applied engineering knowledge related to biomechanical systems, and the application of engineering principles toward the design and development of biological materials, treatment of diseases, and performance of biomedical devices. Significant research efforts are aimed at developing a fundamental understanding of aging and disease processes in living systems.
