Biomedical Materials I

Bild

The students

  • will obtain an overview of metallic materials that are commonly used as materials for endoprosthetic, exoprosthetic and biomechanical applications
  • will learn the basics of how to relate the specific properties of materials, which are based on their atomic structure, microstructure, etc., to the requirements of biomedical applications
  • will be able to correlate the requirements of different biomedical applications (orthopedic, cardiological, dental, etc.) with commonly used materials

 Inhalte

  • metallic materials: steels, Ti-based, Co-based and Mg-based alloys, further elements and alloys (Ag, Au, Cu)
  • atomic structure, microstructure, processing and alloying strategy, corrosion properties, mechanical properties, biocompatibility, wear and fatigue
  • dental applications, orthopedic applications, cardiological applications, applications in otolaryngology
