About me
I am a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Center for Orthopaedic Biomechanics, University of Denver, specializing in computational orthopaedic biomechanics. My research is focused on using finite element methods to investigate clinically relevant issues, such as joint mechanics, bone remodeling, and implant stability, with the goal of understanding joint biomechanics,improving implant performance, and optimizing current surgical techniques. Having been working in the Center for more than 9 years, I have accumulated plenty of knowledge and developed expert skills in orthopaedic biomechanics, computational modeling, and finite element analysis.
Current Research
My current work includes developing and validating computational models for experiment devices, implants, and human tissues; simulating lower limb activities and assessing the implant kinematic performance; identifying the primary contributors to hip stability; evaluating and comparing the fixation stability for novel TKA/UKA/THA designs; testing implant designs and prototypes under physiological conditions and give suggestions for improvement; answering surgeons’ concerns by simulating potential surgical plans and technique concepts.
