SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This book covers the fundamentals of biomechanics. Topics include bio solids, biofluids, stress, balance and equilibrium. Students are encouraged to contextualize principles and exercises within a big picture of biomechanics. This is an ideal book for undergraduate students with interests in biomedical engineering.
