Institute of Continuum Mechanics and Biomechanics
The Institute of Continuum Mechanics and Biomechanics (LKM) engages enthusiatic researchers working on a wide range of scientific topics that apply experimental and computational mechanics to tackle various interdisciplinary research questions including mechanics of living tissues, biomaterials, and 3D printing. Through the combination of experiments, continuum mechanics modeling, and simulation, we strive to improve our understanding of the mechanical behavior of biological structures and to find innovative solutions at the interfaces of engineering, medicine and biological sciences.
