Courses

Engineering of musculoskeletal system and rehabilitation

BIO-687

This course presents today research questions and methods associated to the musculoskeletal system, its pathologies, and treatment.

Numerical methods in biomechanics

ME-484

Students understand and apply numerical methods (FEM) to answer a research question in biomechanics. They know how to develop, verify and validate multi-physics and multi-scale numerical models. They can analyse and comment results in an oral presentation and a written report.
