AI Thread Summary
Biomechanics is a field that examines the mechanics of biological structures, including bones, joints, and various forms of motion such as walking, swimming, and flying. It also involves studying the mechanics and movement of cells, particularly the cytoskeleton. Key clinical applications include the development of prosthetic materials and understanding how cancer cells navigate in and out of the bloodstream. The discipline encompasses a wide range of topics, highlighting its relevance in both health and biological research.

Biomechanics covers a lot of topics: the mechanics of biological structures (bones, joints, wings..) and their motion (walking, swimming, flying...). Also, the mechanics of cells (cytoskeleton) and their motion. The main clinical applications I know of are the development of prosthetic materials and how cancer cells cross into and out of the bloodstream, but I'm sure there are others.
 

Thread 'Physics Major Considering Masters in EE -- Need help!'

Thread 'Working for defense company?'

I don't know if anyone on here works for any of the well known defense companies of your country, whichever country you are from?? Also, if you choose to work in one, do you think the engineering education provide from your school would adequately prepare you for the job. What do I mean by that? Well if you work at say Lockheed Martin and you work in the latest iteration of a missile or if you work at Pratt & Whitney, they assign you to work in the team helping out with building the jet...
