Biomechanical Engineering is an interdisciplinary field that combines principles from engineering, biology, and mechanics to analyze and improve human movement. It is a complex field that requires a deep understanding of various subjects such as Bioengineering, Biomechanics, Mechanical Engineering, Human movement analysis, and more.

Bioengineering and Biomechanics:

Bioengineering involves the application of engineering principles to solve biological problems. In the context of biomechanics, it focuses on understanding the structure and function of living tissues and organs. Biomechanics, on the other hand, is the study of how mechanical forces affect living organisms and their movements.

Mechanical Engineering and Human Movement Analysis:

Mechanical Engineering principles play a crucial role in biomechanical engineering as they provide a foundation for understanding the mechanics of body movements. Human movement analysis involves using tools and techniques to study and evaluate how the body moves, and how it can be improved.

Orthopaedic Biomechanics and Computational Biomechanics:

Orthopaedic biomechanics deals with the study of the structure, function, and mechanical behavior of bones, joints, and muscles. Computational Biomechanics is the use of computer simulations to study and understand the mechanics of biological systems.

Biomedical Engineering and Finite Element Analysis:

Biomedical Engineering involves the design and development of medical devices and technologies to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of medical conditions. Finite element analysis is a method used in biomechanics to analyze the stresses and strains within a structure under different loading conditions.

Tissue Mechanics and Biomechanical Modeling:

Tissue mechanics is the study of the mechanical properties of biological tissues, such as bone, muscle, and cartilage. Biomechanical modeling involves creating computer models to simulate and analyze the behavior of biological systems.

Biomechanical Testing and Rehabilitation Engineering:

Biomechanical testing involves conducting experiments and measurements to gather data and validate computer models. Rehabilitation engineering uses biomechanical principles to design and develop assistive devices and technologies to help individuals with disabilities.

Medical Devices, Movement Science and Biomaterials:

Medical devices are instruments and tools used in the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of medical conditions. Movement science is the study of how the human body moves and functions. Biomaterials are synthetic or natural Materials used in biomedical devices and implantations.

Musculoskeletal Engineering and Biomechanical Design:

Musculoskeletal engineering focuses on the design and development of products that enhance the function of the skeletal and muscular systems. Biomechanical design involves applying engineering principles and techniques to create innovative solutions for medical and rehabilitation purposes.

Sports Biomechanics and Injury Prevention:

Sports biomechanics involves applying biomechanical principles to analyze the movements of athletes and improve their performance. It also plays a significant role in injury prevention by understanding the mechanical stresses that can lead to injuries.

Biomechatronics:

Biomechatronics is the integration of mechanical elements, Electronics and Computer Control Systems to create improved human mobility and performance.

In conclusion, Biomechanical Engineering is a fascinating field that requires a deep understanding of various subjects. At our institution, we are committed to providing students with a comprehensive education in all aspects of biomechanics and helping them excel in this challenging field.
