Summary:

"Focusing on orthopedic and rehabilitation engineering applications, this comprehensive reference collects the latest research and cutting-edge techniques used in computational biomechanics. The book is divided into chapters based on body part: foot and ankle joint, knee joint, lower limb, hip joint, spine, and upper extremity. Each chapter covers basic anatomy of the body part and details the scientific questions and medical problems that are addressed by modeling. The book discusses computational model development and techniques used, related experimental studies for model setup and validation, and clinical applications"--Provided by publisher.
