Preventive Biomechanics - Optimizing Support Systems for the Human Body in the Lying and Sitting Position (Hardcover, 2013... Preventive Biomechanics - Optimizing Support Systems for the Human Body in the Lying and Sitting Position (Hardcover, 2013 ed.)

R4,405 Discovery Miles 44 050 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

How can we optimize a bedridden patient s mattress? How can we make a passenger seat on a long distance flight or ride more comfortable? What qualities should a runner s shoes have? To objectively address such questions using engineering and scientific methods, adequate virtual human body models for use in computer simulation of loading scenarios are required. The authors have developed a novel method incorporating subject studies, magnetic resonance imaging, 3D-CAD-reconstruction, continuum mechanics, material theory and the finite element method. The focus is laid upon the mechanical "in vivo"-characterization of human soft tissue, which is indispensable for simulating its mechanical interaction with, for example, medical bedding or automotive and airplane seating systems. Using the examples of arbitrary body support systems, the presented approach provides visual insight into simulated internal mechanical body tissue stress and strain, with the goal of biomechanical optimization of body support systems. This book is intended for engineers, manufacturers and physicians and also provides students with guidance in solving problems related to support system optimization.

Das vorliegende Lehr- und Fachbuch bildet unter Einbeziehung der Werkstoffphanomenologie einen Bruckenschlag zwischen analytischen und numerischen Methoden wie der Kontinuumsmechanik und der Finite Elemente Methode (FEM). Aufbauend auf den Grundlagen der Materialtheorie wird besonders auf Bauteile mit linear- und nichtlinear-elastischem sowie linear-viskoelastischem Werkstoffverhalten eingegangen, wobei beispielsweise das ausgepragte viskoelastische Verhalten von Natur- und Kunststoffen beleuchtet wird. Gegliedert in einen theoretischen Grundlagenteil und einen anwendungsbezogenen Teil mit Beispielen aus Forschung und Technik gibt das Buch zuverlassig uber Form- und Materialoptimierung von Bauteilen Auskunft. Der Inhalt des Buches schliesst wichtige Teile des Lehrstoffes Hohere Festigkeitslehre mit ein.
