Computational Biomechanics is an accessible, comprehensive text for teaching and further reading. It focuses on the use of patient-specific finite element models in tissue biomechanics, providing a collection of papers from subject matter experts, all from biomedical engineering perspectives. Each chapter takes a systematic approach to problem-solving within computational biomechanics using open source software tools. Verification and validation process for models are also covered, with methods presented in case studies that give readers examples to replicate in their own work. Content covered includes multi-physics, multi-scale, and multi-domain approaches, molecular dynamics, continuum and FEA models, cell mechanics, and material models.
