| Titre : | Biomechanics : mechanical properties of living tissues | | Type de document : | texte imprimé | | Auteurs : | Y.C. Fung, Auteur | | Mention d'édition : | 2nd. ed. | | Editeur : | New York : Springer | | Année de publication : | 1993 | | Importance : | 568 p. | | Présentation : | couv. ill.,ill. | | Format : | 24 cm. | | ISBN/ISSN/EAN : | 978-0-387-97947-2 | | Langues : | Anglais (eng) | | Catégories : | GÉNIE BIOMÉDICAL
| | Index. décimale : | 35-07 Biomécanique | | Résumé : | This book is accepted internationally as the standard treatment of the mechanical properties of biological fluids, solids, tissues, and organs. It is used as both a reference and textbook in this rapidly growing field. Biomechanics presents a general outline of the discipline, with applications to bioengineering, physiology, medicine, and surgery. The second edition reflects the broad advances that have been made in this field during the past decade and adds numerous new topics.
References have been brought up to date, and the widely praised emphasis on formulating and solving problems has been strengthened with numerous new examples. The book begins with a historical introduction to the field of biomechanics, followed by a chapter which relates the definitions, vocabulary, and methods of applied mechanics to biological tissues. These methods are then used to treat in detail the mechanical properties of blood, including those of blood cells and vessels.
The remaining chapters discuss the viscoelastic properties of biological fluids and solids, as well as the mechanics of muscle, bone, and connective tissue. | | Note de contenu : | Contents
