The project focuses on the development of novel medical devices with a focus on creating technologies that will help people with difficult diseases or improve quality of life. The project also involve the development of novel mechanical delivery mechanisms for different drug compounds. The ideal candidate will be eager to learn and work in a multidisciplinary project that involve aspects of mechanical engineering, material science, chemical engineering, bio-analytics, and bioengineering. This merger of engineering disciplines makes for an interesting learning experience that goes beyond the typical classroom and more into the world of translational and applied engineering and science. - Biomedical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Materials Engineering, Mechanical and Industrial Engineering

| Polymer networks are made by cross-linking polymer chains at their ends by means of a chemical reaction. While the properties of used reactions are usually very well characterized for small molecules, little is known about how the presence of a polymer chain and its length affect this reaction. In this project, we aim to study this, mostly experimentally, but also including a theoretical approach. We propose to start with boronic ester chemistry, which has been already characterized in literature and in our lab. the reactants will be functionalized on linear PEG chains. We plan on studying both the thermodynamic and kinetic parameters. - Characterisation of Macromolecules, Physical Chemistry of Macromolecules, Thermodynamics and Statistical Physics

| The manipulation of materials and fluids through acoustic streaming has emerged as a powerful technique with applications in manufacturing and biomedical engineering. This method utilizes sound waves to control the movement of particles within a fluid, offering precise and non-invasive manipulation. However, achieving freeform path manipulation—guiding materials along complex, non-linear trajectories—remains a significant challenge due to difficulties in controlling the influence range and vortex dynamics of acoustic streaming. Traditional methods often struggle with maintaining precision and stability along intricate paths, as the non-uniform distribution of acoustic forces complicates consistent directionality. Artificial Intelligence (AI) presents a promising solution, enabling real-time control and optimization of these systems. By integrating AI with acoustic streaming, algorithms can analyze and predict the interactions between acoustic forces and fluid dynamics, allowing for dynamic adjustments that enhance accuracy.
In this thesis, we propose addressing these challenges by implementing a pillar array of acoustic actuators coupled with AI-driven control systems. The pillar array will generate and modulate acoustic streaming fields, while AI will optimize and automate their control in real time. This integration aims to improve the precision of freeform path manipulation, facilitating the creation of complex patterns that are otherwise difficult to achieve, thereby expanding the possibilities for material manipulation across various applications.

| Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is a condition characterized by the narrowing of the lumbar spinal canal, resulting in compression of the nerve roots or cauda equina. Patients with LSS often exhibit altered spinal kinematics and compensatory movement patterns, which can increase paraspinal muscle activity and segmental loads. This study aims to estimate the spinal loads in LSS patients using an advanced full-body musculoskeletal model within the AnyBody Modeling System, incorporating patient-specific motion-capture data. Gaining a deeper understanding of the differences in spinal kinematics between LSS patients and healthy individuals, and their effects on spinal loading, could inform more effective treatment and rehabilitation strategies. - Biomechanical Engineering
