Biomechanics Functional Adaption and Remodeling

Biomechanics Functional Adaption and Remodeling / edited by Kozaburo Hayashi, Akira Kamiya, Keiro Ono.

"Function dictates structure" is a classic paradigm reaffirmed in Wolff's law of the skeletal system. A major question being addressed by current research in biomechanics is whether this doctrine also holds true for the cardiovascular system and connective tissues. Taking a multidisci...
