ELECTIVE SUBJECTS

ARTIFICIAL ORGANS AND PROSTHESIS

Introduction to robotic foundations and medical robotics
The course aims at providing the students with the fundamental elements concerning the design and fabrication of prosthetic devices and artificial organs. Emphasis will be given to the materials and processing techniques necessary to provide the final device with adequate functional characteristics. The biomechanics of soft and hard tissues will be studied in order to evaluate the stresses, strains and external constrains to which artificial substitutes should be subjected in vivo. The course will then focus on analysing deep in details a selected number of devices relevant in the orthopaedic and cardiovascular fields.
