The Biomechanics Research Group excels at the intersection of mechanical and biomedical engineering, with a strong focus on simulation techniques, including musculoskeletal simulation using multibody dynamics and finite element-based tissue simulation.

Our expertise spans the entire spectrum of biomechanics, from studying cellular mechanics to the biomechanics of humans and even animals like cows.

The group is renowned for its pioneering work in musculoskeletal simulation, leading to the creation of the AnyBody Modeling System, which later evolved into the independent commercial entity, AnyBody Technology. We continue to actively research and enhance simulation methods and their applications.

Our educational efforts primarily revolve around the M.Sc. program in Sports Technology and the B.Sc. program in Sports Science, both affiliated with the School of Medicine and Health. This has naturally fostered an interest in sports biomechanics, encompassing various sports like cycling, racket sports, and yachting.
