Dr Krishna Manda

School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering

Dr Manda’s research interests are computational biomechanics, nonlinear solid mechanics, biomaterials and additive manufacturing, multiscale modelling of soft/hard tissues, musculoskeletal tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Dr Manda has been involved in various projects focussing on computational modelling of soft tissue (articular cartilage) and micro-macro-mechanical modelling of bone, constitutive modelling of time-dependent behaviour and mechanobiology of bone. His research has more recently focused on bioresorbable biomaterials, 3d printing, in vitro tissue regeneration in bone/cartilage scaffolds and developing predictive mechanobiological models.
