Abstract
It happens too often that when we try to combine the best of two worlds wehit a wall: experts (and geeks..) in one discipline cannot (and refuse to) understand the other. Biologists are not really used (or don’t really want)to hear about force, stress and strain; mechanical engineers usually not about cellular biologyand gene expression. OK, not new.

| Other | At TU Wien itself, biomechanical activities date back at least to the late 1980s and early 1990s, arising from interactions between groups from TU Wien’s Mechanical and Civil Engineering Departments and the Viennese Medical institutions. They comprise pioneering forms of bone micromechanics and adaptation modelling at the then Institute of Lightweight Design and Aerospace Engineering, or the first-ever testing device for anisotropic elasticity testing of skin, at the then Institute for Strength of Materials. In 2003, the first professor of biomechanics was appointed at TU Wien who not only established a working group in this area, but also founded the Interfacultary Laboratory for Micro- and Nanomechanics of Biological and Biomimetical Materials. |
