Biomechanics of Living Organs: Hyperelastic Constitutive Laws for Finite Element Modeling

Biomechanics of Living Organs is the first book to cover finite element biomechanical modelling of each organ in the human body. This collection of chapters from the leaders in their field focuses on the constitutive laws for each organ. Each author introduces the most recent state of the art as concerns constitutive laws, and then illustratse the implementation of such laws with Finite Element Modeling of these organs. The focus of each chapter is on instruction, careful derivation and presentation of formulae and methods. When modelling tissues, this book will help you determine the modelling parameters and the variability for particular populations. The chapters highlight important experimental techniques needed to inform, motivate, and also validate the choice of strain energy function or constitutive model. Remodelling, growth and damage are all covered. The content also includes the relationship of constitutive relationships of organs to tissue and molecular scale properties; since net organ behavior depends fundamentally on its sub components. This book is intended for professionals, academics and students in tissue and continuum biomechanics.
