Description du livre
This
book provides a state-of-the-art update, as well as perspectives on future
directions of research and clinical applications in the implementation of
biomechanical and biophysical experimental, theoretical and computational
models which are relevant to military medicine. Such experimental and modeling
efforts are helpful, on the one hand, in understanding the aetiology,
pathophysiology and dynamics of injury development and on the other hand in
guiding the development of better equipment and protective gear or devices that
should ultimately reduce the prevalence and incidence of injuries or lessen
their hazardous effects. The book is useful for military-oriented biomedical
engineers and medical physicists, as well as for military physiologists and
other medical specialists who are interested in the science and technology
implemented in modern investigations of military related injuries.
