Description
Biomechanics: Mechanical Properties of Living Tissues is a seminal work that bridges the fields of engineering and biology by systematically analyzing the mechanical behavior of biological materials. Y C Fung provides detailed examinations of how various tissues—including bone, muscle, blood vessels, and soft connective tissues—respond to mechanical forces and deformation.
The book covers essential concepts such as stress-strain relationships, viscoelasticity, and material properties specific to living systems. Through both theoretical frameworks and experimental data, Fung demonstrates how understanding tissue mechanics is crucial for medical applications, prosthetic design, and injury prevention. This text serves as an essential reference for biomedical engineers, physiologists, and researchers seeking to comprehend the fundamental mechanical principles governing living organisms.
