Introduction to Continuum Biomechanics by Kyriacos Athanasiou
English | 16 July 2008 | ISBN: 1598296175 | 220 Pages | PDF | 10 MB

This book is concerned with the study of continuum mechanics applied to biological systems, i.e., continuum biomechanics. This vast and exciting subject allows description of when a bone may fracture due to excessive loading, how blood behaves as both a solid and fluid, down to how cells respond to mechanical forces that lead to changes in their behavior, a process known as mechanotransduction.
