Innovating Science™ Engineer and Explore Materials for Prosthetics Kit

Description

Innovating Science™ Engineer and Explore Materials for Prosthetics Kit investigates materials that biomedical engineers use when creating prosthetic devices. Students identify the physical properties of various metals, ceramics, and polymers to determine which are most suitable for use.

• In this lab, students will explore the materials that biomedical engineers use when creating prosthetic devices
• They will first investigate the physical properties of various metals, ceramics, and polymers to understand how they differ
• Then, they will determine which materials would be most suitable for use in a hip replacement prosthetic
• Students will then engineer their own prosthetic arm that meets certain design requirements and mimics the functionality of a real hand
• Kit contains enough materials for 15 groups
• Teacher’s Manual and Student Study Guide copy masters are included
