Senior Design Project 2: “Design of a Bioimplant for Elbow joint” (2014-2015) - The students were advised to develop designs for implants with inclusion of degree freedom for elbow joints along with the materials selection process. They were provided with the knowledge base of bio implant materials, their designs and properties. Also, the students were helped in refining the designs in order to meet the practical requirements of elbow joints.
