Student Research Projects, Bachelor, Master and Diploma Theses

The Biofluid Mechanics Lab provides the opportunity to work on

concerning topics such as fluid mechanics, medical engineering, and biotechnology. There is a possibility of being paid. The main research topics of the laboratory are (amongst others):

• Developement of Artificial Heart Assist Systems,
• Flow Analysis in Artificial and Natural Heart Valves,
• Numerical Flow Simulation,
• Analysis of the Correlation of Atherosclerosis with Flow,
• Bioreactors,
• Flow in Microcapsules,
• Device Design,
• Flow Analysis in Multiphase Flows,
• Improvement and Application of Flow Measurement Techniques (e. g. PIV),
• non-invasive blood pressure measurement and
• percutaneous devices (catheter, endo-exo-prostheses, etc.) and associated microbial infections (biofilms).
