This course introduces students to biomechanics, an increasingly important branch of applied mathematics. Its focus is in the scientific study of the normal function in living systems, or, how organisms, organ systems, organs, cells, and biomolecules carry out the chemical or physical functions that exist in a living system. It also serves to reinforce students skills in mathematical modelling, a subject of importance for all students aiming to apply mathematics to other areas.
