Multiscale Simulations and Mechanics of Biological Materials by Shaofan Li Book PDF Summary
Multiscale Simulations and Mechanics of BiologicalMaterials A compilation of recent developments in multiscalesimulation and computational biomaterials written by leadingspecialists in the field Presenting the latest developments in multiscale mechanics andmultiscale simulations, and offering a unique viewpoint onmultiscale modelling of biological materials, this book outlinesthe latest developments in computational biological materials fromatomistic and molecular scale simulation on DNA, proteins, andnano-particles, to meoscale soft matter modelling of cells, and tomacroscale soft tissue and blood vessel, and bone simulations.Traditionally, computational biomaterials researchers come frombiological chemistry and biomedical engineering, so this isprobably the first edited book to present work from these talentedcomputational mechanics researchers. The book has been written to honor Professor Wing Liu ofNorthwestern University, USA, who has made pioneering contributionsin multiscale simulation and computational biomaterial in specificsimulation of drag delivery at atomistic and molecular scale andcomputational cardiovascular fluid mechanics via immersed finiteelement method. Key features: Offers a unique interdisciplinary approach to multiscalebiomaterial modelling aimed at both accessible introductory andadvanced levels Presents a breadth of computational approaches for modellingbiological materials across multiple length scales (molecular towhole-tissue scale), including solid and fluid basedapproaches A companion website for supplementary materials plus links tocontributors’ websites (www.wiley.com/go/li/multiscale)
