The course aims to familiarize students with the basic issues of engineering biomechanics, including movement, and methods of research and support of the human musculoskeletal system, as well as acquire skills in determining the biomechanical properties of tissues and defining measures supporting the dysfunction of the musculoskeletal system. Understanding the concepts of remodeling of tissue structures.
Wymagania wstępne
Knowledge of human anatomy and physiology. Basic knowledge of material mechanics and statistical data analysis methods.

The content of the laboratory exercises:
The classes will be carried out at the Biomechanics Laboratory and the Medical Device Prototyping Laboratory operating at the Department of Biomedical Engineering in the form of the following exercises:
Testing and evaluation of mechanical / strength properties of implant tissues/components in static tests: stretching, compression and bending.
Investigation and evaluation of the biomechanical properties of the implant-bone connection.
Statistical analysis of the obtained results. Verification of experimental results using finite element numerical modeling.
Numerical modeling of correction of lower limb in varus and valgus of the knees alignment using Coventry technique.
Classes will be held, among others, with the use of the latest GOM optical system for the analysis of human movement.

Grading is done by obtaining a passing grade on the returned reports of each exercise and knowledge tests.
The student may have a maximum of two absences, which he is obliged to justify within five days and is obliged to make up for them within the time agreed with the tutor.
The regulations on the conditions for passing the credit correspond to the conditions for direct credit, subject to the possibility of introducing changes in the event of the necessity to switch to the remote credit during the regulatory period, before the session begins.
Other conditions are specified in the Regulations of Studies at the University of Zielona Góra https://www.uz.zgora.pl/index.php?regulamin-studiow
