Incorporating Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Content Into Bioengineering Curricula: A Program-Level Approach
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) are interconnected with bioengineering, yet have historically been absent from accreditation standards and curricula. Toward educating DEI-competent bioengineers and meeting evolving ...
Hybrid Soft-Rigid Active Prosthetics Laboratory Exercise for Hands-On Biomechanical and Biomedical Engineering Education
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper introduces a hands-on laboratory exercise focused on assembling and testing a hybrid soft-rigid active finger prosthetic for biomechanical and biomedical engineering (BME) education. This hands-on laboratory ...
A Model for Competency-Based Grading and Its Effect on Student Outcomes in a Biomechanics Course
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Competency-based grading (CBG) can take different forms in different subject areas. We present a method for implementing CBG in a biomechanics course with nine primary learning objectives. Competency in each learning ...
The Impact of the Fluid–Solid Coupling Behavior of Macro and Microstructures in the Spiral Cochlea on Hearing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The cilia of the outer hair cells (OHCs) are the key microstructures involved in cochlear acoustic function, and their interactions with lymph in the cochlea involve complex, highly nonlinear, coupled motion and energy ...
An Apparatus for Measuring Combined Shear-Tensile Loading in Fibrous Tissues Ex Vivo
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Soft tissues such as tendon and ligament undergo a combination of shear and tensile loading in vivo due to their boundary conditions at muscle and/or bone. Current experimental protocols are limited to pure tensile loading, ...
An Experiential Learning Opportunity in Norway: Computation for Bioengineering and Mechanical Engineering Students
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The global learning initiative at Northeastern University is focused on fostering intercultural communication skills. The Dialogue of Civilization (DOC) program serves as a mechanism to achieve such a goal by offering ...

Biomechanical Considerations of Refreshable Braille and Tactile Graphics Toward Equitable Access: A Review
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This review highlights the biomechanical foundations of braille and tactile graphic discrimination within the context of design innovations in information access for the blind and low-vision community. Braille discrimination ...
Assessing Learning of Computer Programing Skills in the Age of Generative Artificial Intelligence
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools such as ChatGPT, Bard, and Claude have recently become a concern in the delivery of engineering education. For courses focused on computer coding, such tools are capable for ...
Constitutive Modeling of Mouse Arteries Suggests Changes in Directional Coupling and Extracellular Matrix Remodeling That Depend on Artery Type, Age, Sex, and Elastin Amounts
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Arterial stiffening occurs during natural aging, is associated with an increased risk of adverse cardiovascular events, and can follow different timelines in males and females. One mechanism of arterial stiffening includes ...
