Reihe: Biomechanics of Living Organs

Biomechanics of Living Organs: Hyperelastic Constitutive Laws for Finite Element Modeling is the first book to cover finite element biomechanical modeling of each organ in the human body. This collection of chapters from the leaders in the field focuses on the constitutive laws for each organ. Each author introduces the state-of-the-art concerning constitutive laws and then illustrates 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 modeling tissues, this book will help users determine modeling parameters and the variability for particular populations. Chapters highlight important experimental techniques needed to inform, motivate, and validate the choice of strain energy function or the constitutive model. Remodeling, growth, and damage are all covered, as is the relationship of constitutive relationships of organs to tissue and molecular scale properties (as net organ behavior depends fundamentally on its sub components). This book is intended for professionals, academics, and students in tissue and continuum biomechanics. - Covers hyper elastic frameworks for large tissue deformations - Considers which strain energy functions are the most appropriate to model the passive and active states of living tissue - Evaluates the physical meaning of proposed energy functions

Yohan Payan is Director of Research at the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS). In 1997, he received an award from the University of Grenoble for his doctoral research on the biomechanics of speech production. In 2012, the French Biomechanics Society awarded him the Senior Prize for his research on the biomechanics for computer-assisted surgery. His main research interests concern the biomechanical modeling of soft tissues and their integration into medical devices used to assist surgeons for planning or to guide them during surgery. The corresponding applications concern plastic and maxillofacial surgery, breast cancer treatment, neurosurgery, orthopedics and pressure ulcer prevention, based on organs or musculoskeletal models. He was a Research Affiliate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (1999, Boston, USA) and visiting professor at University of Chile (2004, Santiago de Chile) and University of British Columbia (2010, Vancouver, Canada). Yohan Payan is the co-head of the Biomechanics TIMC research team (Univ. Grenoble Alpes) and the Associate Editor of the Clinical Biomechanics journal (Elsevier).
