The latest edition of this well organised and authoritative book
provides a comprehensive account of the mechanics of the
neuro-musculo-skeletal system. Covering the key areas including the
properties of biomaterials, common measuring techniques and
modelling, "Biomechanics of the Musculo-skeletal System, Third
Edition" also integrates historical aspects thus building a bridge
between old and familiar knowledge and the latest developments in
biomechanics. As with the previous edition there are numerous
applications and extensive questions and answers at the end of
sections. Specific changes for this edition include: Major revision
of the section on biological materials including bone, cartilage,
ligament, tendon, muscle and joints and new discussion of failure
and healingExtensive updating of material covering force, pressure
distribution, optical methods and simulationIncrease in the number
and type of applications across a broad range of disciplines
"Biomechanics of the Musculo-skeletal System, Third Edition" is
an invaluable resource for all students, professionals and
researchers concerned with biomechanical aspects of the human or
animal body.
