One of the greatest challenges facing the computational engineering community is to extend the success of computational mechanics to fields outside traditional engineering, in particular to biology, the biomedical sciences and medicine. The Computational Biomechanics for Medicine series provides an opportunity for specialists in computational biomechanics to present their latest methodologies and advancements. This 5th edition comprises nine of the latest developments in both fundamental science and patient-specific applications, from researchers in Australia, New Zealand, USA, UK, France, Ireland and China. Some of the interesting topics discussed are: cellular mechanics; tumor growth and modeling; medical image analysis and both patient-specific fluid dynamics and solid mechanics simulations.

The Computational Biomechanics for Medicine titles provide an opportunity for specialists in computational biomechanics to present their latest methodologies and advancements. This volume comprises eighteen of the newest approaches and applications of computational biomechanics, from researchers in Australia, New Zealand, USA, UK, Switzerland, Scotland, France and Russia. Some of the interesting topics discussed are: tailored computational models; traumatic brain injury; soft-tissue mechanics; medical image analysis; and clinically-relevant simulations. One of the greatest challenges facing the computational engineering community is to extend the success of computational mechanics to fields outside traditional engineering, in particular to biology, the biomedical sciences, and medicine. We hope the research presented within this book series will contribute to overcoming this grand challenge.

"The city has never looked more beautiful . . . a wonderful addition to a personal library or coffee table." -Lea Lane, author, Solo Traveler: Tales and Tips for Great Trips "Photographer Barry B. Doyle used his artistic skills to capture Dallas at its best and present this collection of full-color images that make you want to grab your camera and explore every inch of the city for yourself." -Shutterbug "Presents some of the most eye-catching sites in the Texas city . . . the book would make a great gift." -ForeWord This Week newsletter from ForeWord From the gleaming facades of Fountain Place and the towering purple Plaza Tower to the always-intriguing Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas teems with unforgettable sights. Photographer Barry B. Doyle expertly captures the many sides of this city, making this elaborate guidebook an indispensable tome for Texans and tourists alike. Doyle divides the book into a series of "scapes," with each one devoted to a particular theme. He covers the architectural aspect of the city, including photographs of the Old Red Courthouse and Victory Plaza at American Airlines Center arena, which is home to the Dallas Mavericks and Dallas Stars. Doyle, exploring the art scene, features an image of the largest equestrian sculpture in the world, Mustangs of Las Colinas, located in Williams Square. The energy of the State Fair of Texas, vibrant flora from the Dallas Arboretum, and exotic animals from the Dallas Zoo are also included in this magnificent volume. Doyle provides a map to assist readers in locating each of the more than fifty mentioned sites. Notes, offering fun facts, and Web site links are resources for additional information. With stunning photographs, this tourist's treasure is an exceptional way to discover the city of Dallas.
