The subject introduces students to the field of bionics (history, theory, practice, experiments, numerical and stochastic modeling, and applications). Applications are focused on interdisciplinary engineering solutions to contemporary medical, sports, injury, and ergonomic problems, and marginally also on mechanical engineering and technology. Knowledge gained: basics of statics, kinematics, and dynamics of human movement and injuries, processing of medical requirements and data (CT, MRI, CAD, etc.) for engineering approaches, numerical modeling (finite element method). The main focus is on the human skeletal system (fractures, implants, orthoses, prostheses, etc.). Students will become familiar with engineering and medical approaches to problem solving (material description, anatomy of organisms, causes of injuries, medical diagnostics, strength analysis of components or implants), will be able to navigate the issues of bionics of movement (statics, dynamics, kinematics versus material properties) and perform load analysis, experimental measurements, and numerical modeling.
