Introduction to Continuum Biomechanics (Synthesis Lectures on Biomedical Engineering)

Morgan and Claypool Publishers, 2008

This book is concerned with the study of continuum mechanics applied to biological systems, i.e., continuum biomechanics. This vast and exciting subject allows description of when a bone may fracture due to excessive loading, how blood behaves as both a solid and fluid, down to how cells respond to mechanical forces that lead to changes in...

The Elements of Continuum Biomechanics

John Wiley & Sons, 2012

An appealing and engaging introduction to Continuum Mechanics in Biosciences

This book presents the elements of Continuum Mechanics to people interested in applications to biological systems. It is divided into two parts, the first of which introduces the basic concepts within a strictly one-dimensional spatial context. This policy...
