Orthopaedic Biomechanics in Sports Medicine

This book presents a fundamental basic overview of orthopedic biomechanics in sports medicine, with a special focus on the current methodologies used in modeling human joints, ligaments, and muscle forces. The first part discusses the principles and materials, including the use of finite element analysis (FEA) to analyze the stress-strain response in the implant-bone interface and design.  The second part focuses on joint-specific biomechanics, highlighting the biomechanics of the knee and
