he 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.
Science and Soccer provides a comprehensive and accessible analysis of the physiology, biomechanics and psychology behind the world's most popular sport, and offers important guidance on how science translates into practice. Fully revised and updated to include new scientific research and data, it examines every key facet of the sport, including: * players' anatomy, physiology, psychology and biomechanics * coaching and training * nutrition
Clinical Anatomy of the Lumbar Spine and Sacrum, 4 Ed
A foundation textbook for those requiring an understanding of the structure and biomechanics of the lumbar spine and sacrum. The book aims to bring together in one source all of the elements of anatomy and biomechanics which are clinically relevant to the study of lumbar spinal pain. The text has been designed and presented in a format which makes it suitable for use by physiotherapists, occupational therapists, manual therapists and post graduate medical students in fields concerned with the management and prevention of back pain.
Presenting the fundamental concepts that are required for further study and research in this field, Principles of Biomechanics focuses on biosystems and the human body in particular. After a brief introduction to the concepts of biosystem modeling, the book discusses elementary mechanics, including methods of analysis, and introduces the human skeletal anatomy. Subsequent chapters address the mechanics of deformable bodies, dynamics, tissue biomechanics, ergonomics, kinematics, fluid mechanics, and circulatory systems. With a wide range of examples and problems, this complete text also provides numerical procedures and specific applications in performance, injury, and rehabilitation.
