WEBINAR: Accelerated Medical Device Testing for Fatigue Failure: Current Technology and Challenges

Fatigue failure is a possible failure mode for any product that experiences cyclic loading. Although it is a common concern in product design, fatigue failure is particularly insidious in implantable medical devices where a fatigue fracture may have lethal clinical consequences. Learn more in this webinar featuring Thomas Secord, University of St. Thomas, and previously of Medtronic. Dr. Secord's work has addressed many aspects of structural design, accelerated testing, and regulatory considerations for implantable devices.

Computational Fluid Dynamics and Multiphysics Cardiac Simulations Based on Medical Imaging and Electromechanical Models

To fully understand cardiac function, it’s necessary to go beyond modeling the structure of the heart, and look at the detailed behavior of blood as it interacts with that structure. This can be accomplished by using a technology borrowed from aerospace and automotive engineering: Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation.

Avoiding Common Pitfalls in Product Development (including customer need)

A great idea doesn't always translate to a successful product. In this webinar, hear from Tiffany Wilson, who has spent years advancing innovative medical technology from benchtop to bedside, as she share the common pitfalls in product development.
