For my PhD thesis I investigated how blood pressure affects the mechanical behaviour of tissue, developed methods for coupling blood pressure to mechanics in computational models of vascularised tissue, and applied these methods to a model of the left ventricle of the heart.
In my undergraduate honours project, I developed a computational model of bone growth in the knee for modelling the progression of osteoarthritis.
