Introduction to Biomechanics -- Elasticity in Biological Materials -- Cellular Biomechanics -- Mechanics of the Musculoskeletal System -- Physiological Fluid Mechanics -- Hemodynamics -- Respiratory System.

Fundamentals of Biomechanics: From Cells to Organ Systems combines biology with engineering to provide a comprehensive overview of biomechanics. It covers cell, tissue, and fluid mechanics in a way that is easy to understand, requiring only a basic background in biology and mechanics. The book includes a wide range of topics, from single-cell mechanics to forces in the musculoskeletal system. Each chapter provides an introduction to biological systems, along with examples and practice problems throughout the text. The book also offers step-by-step derivation of equations from principles. This textbook has been classroom-tested and is designed for advanced undergraduate engineering courses in bioengineering, biomechanics, and physiology. It is also a valuable reference for graduate students, practicing engineers, and medical professionals. Integrates biology with engineering; Includes examples and practice problems throughout the text; Requires a limited background in biology and mechanics.
