UNSW Bionic Heart

Engineering the next generation of total artificial hearts.

14/04/2026

Join us for an Intro to Ansys Workshop hosted by UNSW Bionic Heart, designed to give you a hands-on introduction to simulation tools widely used in engineering and medical device design.

This workshop will guide you through the fundamentals of electromagnetic and thermal simulations, with a focus on walking through the step-by-step process of performing electrostatic and thermal analyses on a simple model. Whether you’re new to Ansys or looking to strengthen your simulation skills, this session will provide practical insights into setting up, running, and interpreting simulation results.
You’ll gain exposure to real-world applications relevant to biomedical and engineering contexts, helping bridge the gap between theory and industry practice.

📅 Date: Friday, 17 April (Week 9)
⏰ Time: 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM
📍 Location: SEB G02 (Science & Engineering Building)

Spots are limited, so be sure to register early.
Bring your curiosity—and your mouse!

We are proud to announce that Mending Broken Hearts (MBH) is officially becoming the UNSW Bionic Heart (UBH).

This rebrand means more than a name change. It reflects the growth, dedication and ambition of a team that has continued to evolve in its mission to advance in cardiac technology. As we mature as an organisation, our identity should reflect the standard we hold ourselves to, rigorous, collaborative and purpose driven.

UBH represents a renewed commitment to innovation and excellence, as well as a future built on the strong foundation our team has worked hard to establish.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey so far.
