Summary

The field which uses the laws and rules of mechanics to study the functions of biological systems like plants, animals, humans, fungi, cells, organs, etc. is known as biomechanics. This vast field has many sub-fields like allometry, soft body dynamics, cardiovascular biomechanics, rehabilitation, biofluid mechanics, computational mechanics, kinesiology, animal locomotion, etc. This book unfolds the innovative aspects of biomechanics which will be crucial for the holistic understanding of the subject matter. Some of the diverse topics covered in it address the varied branches that fall under this category. This textbook will serve as a reference to a broad spectrum of readers.
