Given the strong current attention of orthopaedic,
biomechanical, and biomedical engineering research on translational
capabilities for the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of
clinical disease states, the need for reviews of the state-of-art
and current needs in orthopaedics is very timely. Orthopaedic
Biomechanics provides an in-depth review of the current knowledge
of orthopaedic biomechanics across all tissues in the
musculoskeletal system, at all size scales, and with direct
relevance to engineering and clinical applications.
Discussing the relationship between mechanical loading,
function, and biological performance, it first reviews basic
structure-function relationships for most major orthopedic tissue
types followed by the most-relevant structures of the body. It then
addresses multiscale modeling and biologic considerations. It
concludes with a look at applications of biomechanics, focusing on
recent advances in theory, technology and applied engineering
approaches.
With contributions from leaders in the field, the book presents
state-of-the-art findings, techniques, and perspectives. Much of
orthopaedic, biomechanical, and biomedical engineering research is
directed at the translational capabilities for the "real world."
Addressing this from the perspective of diagnostics, prevention,
and treatment in orthopaedic biomechanics, the book supplies novel
perspectives for the interdisciplinary approaches required to
translate orthopaedic biomechanics to today s real world.
