Orthopedic Biomechanics 2nd edition Edition
The expanded and fully updated second edition of Orthopedic Biomechanics
explains the effects of mechanical influences on the musculoskeletal
system and highlights the importance of biomechanical knowledge in the
prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of orthopedic injuries and
disorders. Clear and concise discussion of the forces acting on bones,
tendons, and ligaments facilitates a solid understanding of current and
past research, complex concepts, and technical information in
orthopedic biomechanics. Readers will also find practical guidance for
applying their knowledge to solving actual clinical problems.Â
The
book begins by summarizing the basic principles of biomechanics and
mathematical theory, including biomaterials science, vector algebra,
and movement in two and three dimensions. It then moves on to the
mechanical properties of musculoskeletal tissues, with chapters devoted
to muscle and muscle function; the modeling of joint loads; gait
analysis; and the mechanical aspects of the hip, knee, spine, shoulder,
and foot.Â
Key Features:Â
Orthopedic Biomechanics, 2nd Edition,
is an essential resource for practitioners and students of orthopedics,
orthopedic surgery, prosthetics and orthotics, and physiotherapy.
Comprehensive in scope but approachable in coverage, the book provides
the insights and tools needed to make informed clinical decisions.
