Biomechanics: Trends in Modeling and Simulation

Biomechanics: Trends in Modeling and Simulation edited by Gerhard A. Holzapfel, Ray W. Ogden.

The book presents a state-of-the-art overview of biomechanical and mechanobiological modeling and simulation of soft biological tissues. Seven well-known scientists working in that particular field discuss topics such as biomolecules, networks and cells as well as failure, multi-scale, agent-based,...
