Philip Bayly, PhD, MSc Washington University in St. LouisProfessor, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Washington University in St. LouisProfessor, Department of Biomedical Engineering, Washington University in St. LouisPhilip V. Bayly, PhD, is a Professor in the departments of Mechanical Engineering and Biomedical Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis. Dr. Bayly earned an AB in Engineering Science from Dartmouth College in 1986; an MSc in Engineering from Brown University in 1987; and a PhD in Mechanical Engineering in 1993 from Duke University. While in graduate school, he also worked as a research engineer in prosthetics and orthotics for Shriners Hospitals, and as a technical systems and advanced products engineer at Pitney Bowes. Among the awards Dr. Bayly has received are the 1996 National Science Foundation CAREER Award, the 1993 CRAY Research Fellowship and the Washington University School of Engineering 2004 Professor of the Year award. He has more 30 publications, including both peer-reviewed journal articles and book chapters, and is currently Associate Editor of the Journal of Biomechanical Engineering. Dr. Bayly’s research interests include the dynamics of head injury; application of nonlinear dynamics and vibrations to mechanical and biomedical systems; cardiac dynamics (atrial and ventricular fibrillation); and instability in high-speed machining. He is principal investigator for the SCIB project Head Injury Biomechanics: Model Validation Tasks, with the aims of measuring linear and angular acceleration of the head during the heading of a soccer ball, and measuring, non-invasively, the strain field in the human brain during voluntary head motion using tagged magnetic resonance. The objective of the project is to provide experimental data for validation of numerical studies of head injury. His other current research projects involve investigating ongoing intracranial strain in mild traumatic head injury, and cell-cell interaction in the event of hypoxic brain injury. |
