| Abstract
|
:
|
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.
