Because of developments in powerful computer technology, computational techniques, advances in a wide spectrum of diverse technologies, and other advances coupled with cross disciplinary pursuits between technology and its greatly significant applied implications in human body processes, the field of biomechanics is evolving as a broadly significant area. Now in four volumes, Biomechanical Systems, Techniques, and Applications explores the many areas of significant advances, including dynamics of musculo-skeletal systems; mechanics of hard and soft tissues, muscles, bone remodeling, hard and soft tissue interfaces, blood flow, air flow, flow-prosthesis interfaces, and impact; cardiovascular and respiratory biomechanics; and dynamics of many machine interactions.
Univ. of California, Los Angeles. Second volume in an integrated set treating the subject. Reveals the effectiveness and significance of the techniques available, and the essential role they will play in the future. For students, researchers, and practitioners. Complete in four volumes.
The four volumes constitute an integrated set that can nevertheless be utilized as individual volumes.
The titles for each volume are
- Computer Techniques and Computational Methods in Biomechanics
- Cardiovascular Techniques
- Musculoskeletal Models and Techniques
- Biofluid Methods in Vascular and Pulmonary Systems
The contributions to this volume clearly reveal the effectiveness and significance of the techniques
available and, with further development, the essential role that they will play in the future. I hope that
students, research workers, practitioners, computer scientists, and others on the international scene will
find this set of volumes to be a unique and significant reference source for years to come.
