TRIBOLOGY AND FLUID MECHANICS LABORATORY
Professor Donna M. Meyer

Tribology (lubrication, friction, and wear):
Computational modeling of a new hip joint design, using elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) with shape-optimization on the microscale

Bio-ferrography:
Orthopaedics: wear debris characterization in total joint replacements
Detection of bacteria in recreational waters


Fluid Mechanics:
Micro-channel experiments and biosensor design to capture bacteria and cells for rapid detection of diseases and infections.

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
Cancer drug delivery to the brain for tumor volume reduction

CFD modeling of cardiac hemodynamics
