Orthopaedic Biomechanics
Engineering plays a vital role in restoring mobility and improving quality of life through the design of orthopaedic implants and treatments. This module explores the biomechanics of the lower limb, providing an understanding of how engineering principles support the diagnosis, treatment and long-term performance of joint replacements.
You will investigate the structure and mechanical behaviour of bone and soft tissues across multiple length scales, developing an understanding of lower limb anatomy, movement and load transfer. Building on these foundations, you will examine the biomechanics of total joint replacement from both engineering and clinical perspectives, exploring implant function, failure mechanisms and the influence of materials selection and design on long-term performance. Throughout the module, you will strengthen your ability to apply engineering analysis to real healthcare challenges while considering the needs of both patients and clinicians.
By the end of the module, you will be able to evaluate orthopaedic implants using biomechanical principles and engineering analysis, preparing you for careers in medical device development, orthopaedic engineering and biomedical research. -

Other Minds
For most of us, there is nothing more fundamental than our ability to interact with other people. We cooperate and compete in complex ways. Competing and cooperating in these complex ways requires that we understand and respond to many aspects of each other's mental lives. You can often tell whether your friend is happy or angry, or that they believe - perhaps falsely - that the milk is in the fridge. Yet it is hard to understand how we can secure this knowledge of other's mental lives. We cannot know about others' minds in the way that we know about our own. And there is no simple or universal connection between what is on people's minds and how they behave. Moreover we can often not trace our knowledge to any clear or continuous process of conscious reasoning.
In this course we study various theories concerning our knowledge of others' minds. These may include theories as to the epistemology of how we know about others' minds, cognitive theories as to how we come to form the beliefs we do about them, and questions as to how answering the question of how we know about others' minds might relate to our concepts of mentality. Discussion is tied into broader epistemological, cognitive and conceptual questions. -
