Towards a professional medical engineer, It is designed to build up your knowledge and skills to examine the particular properties of the biological fluids and to introduce techniques to analyse their behaviour. This unit introduces the fundamental principles of fluid dynamics that are used to explain the mechanisms of biological flows and their interrelationships with physiological processes, in health and in disease. You will work together with peers to learn basic numerical methods in solving the flow of biofluids and propose design concepts by taking consideration of biological fluid property and behaviour. You will build on EGB323 Fluid Mechanics and LSB231 Physiology to develop your engineering knowledge and skills, with particular emphasis on an improved ability in applying the biological fluid dynamics principles in development of strategies for disease prevention or medical device design.
