Biomechanics and Imaging Core

生物力学和成像核心 生物力学和成像核心，在博士的指导下，托马斯D。布朗，将为所有四个 项目这一核心单位将主要设在骨科和康复科， 生物力学实验室。计算应力分析，大部分物理测试全部进行 项目，以及图像分析工作的很大一部分将在这个单位进行。此外，本发明还提供了一种方法， 生物力学实验室的六名教职员工和博士生物工程师将参加所有CORT 会议和审查。该核心在宏观物理领域具有一系列通用能力， 测试、图像分析和计算力学。此外，它还具有特殊能力， 与正在进行的SCOR工作相结合，这将有助于支持个人 CORT项目。这些领域包括非线性/多孔弹性有限元分析、软骨 撞击和压痕，多轴加载生物反应器，粉碎能和软组织损伤 成像评估和自动定量软骨组织形态测定。有关联的个人 与这个实验室也是关键人员在所有四个CORT项目。

Biomechanics and Imaging Core The Biomechanics and Imaging Core, under the direction of Dr. Thomas D. Brown, will serve all four projects. This core unit will be primarily located in the Department of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation's Biomechanics Laboratory. The computational stress analysis, most of the physical testing for all projects, and a substantial portion of the image analysis work will be performed in this unit. In addition, the six faculty and staff PhD bioengineers in the Biomechanics Laboratory will participate in all CORT meetings and reviews. This core has a series of general capabilities in the area of macroscopic physical testing, image analysis, and computational mechanics. In addition, it has special capabilities, developed in conjunction with the ongoing SCOR work, which will be brought to bear in support of the individual CORT projects. These include areas such as nonlinear/poroelastic finite element analysis, cartilage impaction and indentation, a multiaxial loading bioreactor, comminution energy and soft tissue injury imaging assessments, and automated quantitative cartilage histomorphometry. Individuals associated with this laboratory also are key personnel in all four of the CORT projects.
