2. Describe the properties, structures and functions of human joints for normal & diseased.
3. Analyze static &dynamic postures, gait, integrating force, and kinematic data.
4. Develop model for bio-fluids and explain their uses.
5. Discuss the rheology of blood in micro-vessels
6. Develop simple FEA models for biomechanics problems.
