Introduction to Biomedical Materials Science
ENG BE 425
Introductory course in materials science principles for biomedical engineers that investigates how molecular and structural features of materials determine their functional properties as well as important considerations for design and manufacture of materials for medical and biological applications. Biomedical material science topics covered in this course include: atomic structure and bonding in materials; bandy theory of solids; crystal structures and crystalline materials; mechanical properties of materials-static, dynamic and failure modes; defects in materials; dislocations and strengthening of materials; phase diagrams; kinetics of material transformations, metals manufacturing; ceramics -- structure, properties and manufacturing; polymers- synthesis, properties, manufacturing and rapid prototyping; and advanced biomedical relevant topics such as corrosion, tribology, biodegradation and biomaterial standards. Cannot be taken for credit in addition to ENG ME 306.
