"Orthopaedic Biomechanics" is designed to be a systematic, interdisciplinary presentation of the biomechanical laws governing natural human locomotion and, by extension, the movement of prosthetic joints. Specialists provide a synthesis of clinical and research data on muscle and joint loads; biomechanical forces acting upon the estremities and axial skeleton; stress-strain behaviours of bone, tendons, ligament, cartilage and knee meniscus; cortical and trabecular bone properties; lubrication of diarthrodial joints; ...

"Orthopaedic Biomechanics" is designed to be a systematic, interdisciplinary presentation of the biomechanical laws governing natural human locomotion and, by extension, the movement of prosthetic joints. Specialists provide a synthesis of clinical and research data on muscle and joint loads; biomechanical forces acting upon the estremities and axial skeleton; stress-strain behaviours of bone, tendons, ligament, cartilage and knee meniscus; cortical and trabecular bone properties; lubrication of diarthrodial joints; biomechanics of fracture fixation; biomechanics of the spine; and biomechanics of artificial joint fixation, especially bone-prosthesis interactions and prosthesis design. Complementing the text are anatomic line drawings, clinical and intraoperative photographs, CT scans, MR images and radiographs. Most chapters feature problems designed to reinforce key points and assess mastery of the material. It is aimed a orthopaedists and orthopaedic residents as well as bioengineers and senior-level bioengineering students committed to biomechanics research.
