0Semester 1
The aim of the course is to familiarize students with the basic methods of computer modeling, selected methods, techniques and devices used in Biomedical Engineering to assess the human movement apparatus.
The aim of the course is to familiarize students with the issues of designing rehabilitation and sports devices, developing project documentation and concepts with the use of applicable standards and procedures.
The aim of the course is to familiarize students with the methods of developing dedicated control systems for selected industrial issues. The development of control systems includes the selection of the hardware platform, the development of the control algorithm, its implementation in the controller and the test method for the developed system.
The aim of the course is to learn about the destruction processes in metallic, ceramic, polymer and composite materials as well as research methods in the area of destruction mechanics, used to determine the appropriate criteria necessary to predict the durability of various types of materials, structures and biomechanical systems created in the human body after implantation.
The aim of the course is to familiarize students with the methods of designing and visualizing a three-dimensional scene. Students learn about design environments, learn different ways of rendering spatial models.
The aim of the course is to familiarize students with the principles of designing with the use of CAD / CAM systems.
Semester 2
