Fundamentals of Biomechanics Equilibrium, Motion, and Deformation / [electronic resource] : by Nihat Özkaya, Margareta Nordin, David Goldsheyder, Dawn Leger. - 3rd ed. 2012. - XVII, 275 p. 526 illus. online resource.
Introduction -- Force Vector -- Moment And Torque Vectors -- Statics: Systems in Equilibrium -- Applications of Statics to Biomechanics -- Introduction to Dynamics -- Linear Kinematics -- Linear Kinetics -- Angular Kinematics -- Angular Kinetics -- Impulse and Momentum -- Introduction to Deformable Body Mechanics -- Stress & Strain -- Multiaxial Deformations & Stress Analyses -- Mechanical Properties of Biological Tissues.
Biomechanics applies the principles and rigor of engineering to the mechanical properties of living systems. This book integrates the classic fields of mechanics--statics, dynamics, and strength of materials--using examples from biology and medicine. Fundamentals of Biomechanics is excellent for teaching either undergraduates in biomedical engineering programs or health care professionals studying biomechanics at the graduate level. Extensively revised from a successful second edition, the book features a wealth of clear illustrations, numerous worked examples, and many problem sets. The book provides the quantitative perspective missing from more descriptive texts, without requiring an advanced background in mathematics. It will be welcomed for use in courses such as biomechanics and orthopedics, rehabilitation and industrial engineering, and occupational or sports medicine.
