Contents:
Cardiovascular System:Anatomy and Physiology. Cells and Extra-Cellular Matrix Relationship. Soft Tissue Mechanics. Blood Flow Mechanics.Experimental Methods in Cardiovascular Mechanics. Computational Methods in Cardiovascular Mechanics. Cardiovascular Clinical Imaging. Assessment and Validaton Tools for Techniques,Simulations and Models.Cardiac Mechanics. Aortic and Arterial Mechanics.Blood and Microcirculation Mechanics. Aortic Valve Mechanics. Mitral Valve Mechanics.The Mechanical Changes Associated with Aging in the Cardiovascular System. Mechanical Aspcects of Cardiovascular Devices and Drugs.
Abstract: The objective of this book is to illustrate in specific detail how cardiovascular mechanics stands as a common pillar supporting such different clinical successes as drugs for high blood pressure, prosthetic heart valves and coronary artery bypass grafting, among others. This information is conveyed through a comprehensive treatment of the overarching principles and theories that are behind mechanobiological processes, aortic and arterial mechanics, atherosclerosis, blood and microcirculation, hear valve mechanics, as well as medical devices and drugs.
