Taking advantage of the accessibility of the skin "in vivo,"
non-invasive methods were developed about 40 years ago, which have
now developed as accurate sources to measure skin properties and
structures at the microscopic and macroscopic levels. However, even
at the dawn of the twenty-first century, the mechanisms involved in
these properties are still only partly understood. As in many
domains, including biomedical engineering, numerical modeling has
appeared as a complementary key actor for improving our knowledge
on skin physiology.
This book gathers, for the first time, chapters describing
scientific computing and numerical modeling for a deeper
understanding of mechanisms involved in skin physiology. The book
is structured around some skin properties and functions, including
optical and biomechanical properties, skin barrier function, and
homeostasis, covered through several chapters describing either
biological or physical models at different scales.
