MEGR2144 SOLID MECHANICS<\/strong>
\nCatalog Description:
\nIntroduction to Solid Mechanics. An introduction to the theory of deformable bodies and its applications. Stress and deformation resulting from axial, torsion and bending loads. Shear and moment diagrams. Mohr’s circle for stress and strain and buckling of columns. (Fall, Spring)<\/p>\n

Credit Hours:<\/strong>\u00a0(3)
\nPrerequisite(s):<\/strong> MEGR2141 and MATH2241<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

MEGR 4271\/5271 ORTHOPEDIC BIOMECHANICS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Introduces mechanical properties of human body\u2019s hard tissues (bone and cartilage) and soft tissues (muscles, ligament and tendon), and joint biomechanics.\u00a0 Focuses on mechanical and biological considerations for treatment of orthopedic diseases and sports injuries, such as bone fractures, ACL injury, and osteoarthritis. Students learn how to solve medical problems using their engineering knowledge and skills.
\nCredit Hours:<\/strong>\u00a0(3)
\nPrerequisite(s):<\/strong>\u00a0MEGR 2144<\/a>\u00a0with grade of C or above<\/p>\n

MEGR 4272\/5272 MECHANICS OF THE HUMAN LOCOMOTOR SYSTEM\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Introduces dynamic analysis of the human musculoskeletal system. Students learn to develop 3\u2010D rigid body models of human movement, and how to calculate internal forces in muscles and joints during daily and sports activities. Students also learn how to use motion capture system and simulation software of human locomotion.<\/p>\n
