Summary
I hold a PhD and my thesis topic was the Design of Biomedical Implants and Biomaterials under Static, Impact, and Fatigue loads. I currently work as a post-doctoral researcher in the Aerospace Engineering Faculty at TU Delft (Delft University of Technology).Some examples of the topics that will be covered in our lesson are
- The musculoskeletal system,
- Loads and motion in the musculoskeletal systems,
- Bone tissue mechanics,
- Soft tissue mechanics,
- Beam theory for structural analysis of musculoskeletal systems,
- Beams on elastic foundation
- Interface modelling
- Bone-implant systems
- Implant design by means of material optimization
- Screws in implant fixation
- Intramedullary rods
- Bone plates
- External fixators
- Fracture fixation devices
- Total hip replacement
- Total knee replacement
- Articulating surfaces
Courses that require knowledge in physiology, Materials Science, and Mechanical Behavior of Materials may become challenging for students who lack a solid basis in either of the fields. To address this, I take a student-centered approach, starting from the basics to actively engage all students, including those with weaker backgrounds.
If you have extra questions before starting a class, don't hesitate to ask me :)

About teacher
Summary
I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at Delft University of Technology I like sharing my knowledge with others. I believe that teaching makes the knowledge I have acquired as a researcher much more valuable. In my idea, successful teachers have several qualities including knowledge, enthusiasm, and student-based teaching methods.
