This book contains the edited version of invited lectures presented
at the IUTAM Symposium on Synthesis in Bio Solid Mechanics held in
Copenhagen, Denmark, 24-27 May, 1998. The Symposium was attended by
48 scientists in mechanics, mathematics and medicine from 14
countries. The fields of interest range over experimental issues,
models of bone remodelling, micromechanics of bone, analogies
between optimal design models and bone remodelling, to mathematical
issues of the various models seen in this exciting area.
Biomechanics has been a very active research area in the last 25
years and covers a very broad class of problems. The present book
concentrates on the solid mechanics domain of biomechanics, where
important problems of synthesis are presently an active and
challenging part. Characteristics of biomechanical materials are
not only their inhomogeneity and anisotropy, but also their
capability to change in relation to actual use. These living
materials call for new methods of analysis and also new methods for
synthesis. By synthesis in this context is meant design of implants
or artificial control of material growth. Bone mechanics is closely
related to recent work on analysis and design of microstructural
anistropic materials. Also, recent work in shape design can to some
extent be useful in the more complicated problems of biomechanics.
Here interface problems play an essential role. This volume will be
of interest to researchers in the field of (bio)mechanics and
(bio)materials.
