Research summary
AI-generated

Amin Joukar's research uses computer-based finite element modeling to study the biomechanics of spine and pelvic structures, especially the sacroiliac joint, spinal fixation surgeries, and hip implants. This work aims to understand how different surgical implants and techniques perform under mechanical stress, and how factors like sex differences and bone degeneration affect surgical outcomes.
