0319578NesbitThrough the Major Research Instrumentation Program, the PIs will purchase instruments to enhance the bioengineering research capabilities and strengthen the curricular offerings of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Lafayette College. The recent approval of a bioengineering minor, coupled with the current renovation of the engineering complex, make this an opportune time to acquire equipment that will supplement ongoing research in the study of human motion and radio-frequency ablation of tumors. An eight-camera image system for motion analysis and modeling software will be used for human motion studies. The equipment to be acquired for radio-frequency ablation studies includes the radio-frequency generator with electrodes and specialized temperature measuring equipment.

通过主要研究仪器计划，pi将购买仪器来提高生物工程研究能力，并加强拉斐特学院机械工程系的课程设置。最近批准了生物工程辅修课程，加上目前工程综合体的翻新，使这是一个获得设备的时机，这些设备将补充正在进行的人体运动和肿瘤射频消融研究。一个用于运动分析和建模软件的八摄像头图像系统将用于人体运动研究。射频烧蚀研究所需的设备包括带电极的射频发生器和专门的温度测量设备。
