Computational Modelling of Biomechanics and Biotribology in the Musculoskeletal System reviews how a wide range of materials are modelled and how this modelling is applied‎.‎ Computational modelling is increasingly important in the design and manufacture of biomedical materials‎,‎ as it makes it possible to predict certain implant‎-tissue reactions‎,‎ degradation‎,‎ and wear‎,‎ and allows more accurate tailoring of materials‎'‎ properties for the in vivo environment‎.‎ Part I introduces generic modelling of biomechanics and biotribology with a chapter on the fundamentals of computational modelling of biomechanics in the musculoskeletal system‎,‎ and a further chapter on finite element modelling in the musculoskeletal system‎.‎ Chapters in Part II focus on computational modelling of musculoskeletal cells and tissues‎,‎ including cell mechanics‎,‎ soft tissues and ligaments‎,‎ muscle biomechanics‎,‎ articular cartilage‎,‎ bone and bone remodelling‎,‎ and fracture processes in bones‎.‎ Part III highlights computational modelling of orthopedic biomaterials and interfaces‎,‎ including fatigue of bone cement‎,‎ fracture processes in orthopedic implants‎,‎ and cementless cup fixation in total hip arthroplasty ‎(‎THA‎)‎‎.‎ Finally‎,‎ chapters in Part IV discuss applications of computational modelling for joint replacements and tissue scaffolds‎,‎ specifically hip implants‎,‎ knee implants‎,‎ and spinal implants‎;‎ and computer aided design and finite element modelling of bone tissue scaffolds‎.‎ This book is a comprehensive resource for professionals in the biomedical market‎,‎ materials scientists and mechanical engineers‎,‎ and those in academia‎.‎ * Covers generic modelling of cells and tissues‎;‎ modelling of biomaterials and interfaces‎;‎ biomechanics and biotribology* Discusses applications of modelling for joint replacements and applications of computational modelling in tissue engineering
