    Challenge of Biomechanics

    K. Y. Volokh*

    Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.10, No.2, pp. 107-135, 2013, DOI:10.3970/mcb.2013.010.107

    Abstract The application of mechanics to biology – biomechanics – bears great challenges due to the intricacy of living things. Their dynamism, along with the complexity of their mechanical response (which in itself involves complex chemical, electrical, and thermal phenomena) makes it very difficult to correlate empirical data with theoretical models. This difficulty elevates the importance of useful biomechanical theories compared to other fields of engineering. Despite inherent imperfections of all theories, a well formulated theory is crucial in any field of science because it is the basis for interpreting observations. This is all-the-more vital, for… More >
