GAMM Activity Group Computational Biomechanics

Biomechanics is a ever expanding Field of Research that examines the locomotor apparatus as well as continuum mechanics and the numerical aspect of biological soft and hard tissues. In a way, every biological tissue can be seen as a porous material that is intertwined with its interstitial fluid. Furthermore, we are investigating interactions with electrochemical processes as well as studies in regards to growth and longevity.

This activity group is interested in cultivating interest in biomechanical enquiry and being at the forefront of international science of the matter. We are encouraging collaboration between the fields of engineers and mathematicians together with biologists and medical professionals.
