Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Hardcover, 194 pages, numerous colour and black & white illustrations in text, NOT ex-library. Minor handling wear, book looks unread; clean and bright throughout with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Issued without a dust jacket. -- Understanding and improving how human joints function - through precise imaging, advanced modelling, and tribological evaluation - this book equips biomedical researchers and clinicians with analytical and design tools for both natural and artificial joints. -- Beginning with a clear introduction to the principles of biotribology, the text moves systematically through the techniques used to identify and visualise joint structures, including computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and coordinate measurement systems. It then surveys methods to build both surface and solid models of major joints such as the knee, talocrural (ankle), and temporomandibular (jaw) joints, alongside evaluations of how faithfully biomaterials can replicate anatomical shapes. The analysis extends to microstructural levels, with scanning electron and atomic force microscopy employed to explore the architecture of articular cartilage. Fluid dynamics also receive careful attention, as the rheological properties of synovial fluid are characterized by rotational and oscillatory testing. Building from these empirical foundations, finite element modelling and numerical simulations provide insight into load distribution, stresses, and displacements across joint surfaces. The book further examines the performance of artificial joints from a tribological perspective, emphasising wear, lubrication, and friction, and culminates in a broader reflection on tribological processes as they occur in natural bearing systems. -- What makes this work distinctive is its tight integration of imaging-to-simulation workflows into a single volume devoted specifically to joint mechanics. The techniques discussed - finite element simulations, microscopy-based surface analysis, fluid rheometry - remain central to contemporary orthopaedic research and implant design. By linking material properties, biological function, and engineering perspectives across three anatomically distinct joints, it provides transferable insights valuable for biomedical engineers, orthopaedic practitioners, and graduate students seeking baselines for comparative study. It is both a methodological reference and a specialised resource for anyone working at the interface of biomechanics, materials science, and clinical application.…
