Tissue Biomechanics

Biomechanics and transport properties of fibrocartilage involve understanding behavior at both the cellular and tissue levels. Current projects focus on the mechanical and transport properties of the human meniscus.

Occupational Biomechanics

Study of the physical interaction of workers with their tools, machines, and materials in the workplace. We have focused on the effects of body composition in manual material handling tasks.

Sports Biomechanics

Analysis of sport activities from a biomechanical perspective. The goal is to study new equipment that aims to improve the athlete's performance. Other projects have been focused on injury prevetion methods.
