Design of Artificial Human Joints & Organs is intended to
present the basics of the normal systems and how, due to aging,
diseases or trauma, body parts may need to be replaced with manmade
materials. The movement of the body generates forces in various
work situations and also internally at various joints, muscles and
ligaments. It is essential to figure out the forces, moments,
pressure etc to design replacements that manage these stresses
without breaking down. The mechanical characterization of the hard
and the soft tissues are presented systematically using the
principles of solid mechanics. The viscoelastic properties of the
tissue will also discussed. This text covers the design science and
methodology from concept to blueprint to the final component being
replaced. Each chapter will be a brief overview of various
joint/organ replacement systems. Engineers working on artificial
joints and organs, as well as students of Mechanical Engineering
and Biomedical Engineering are the main intended audience, however,
the pedagogy is simple enough for those who are learning the
subject for the first time.
