Sommario/riassunto

Biophysical Bone Behaviour: Principles and Applications is the culmination of efforts to relate the biophysical phenomena in bone to bone growth and electrical behavior. Behari develops a bridge between physics and biology of bone leading to its clinical applications, primarily electro stimulations in fracture healing and osteoporosis. The book is based upon authors own research work and his review articles in the area, and updated with the latest research results. The first book dedicated to biophysical bone behaviorDevelops the relationship between the biophysics and biolo

Sommario/riassunto

This two-volume set LNCS 4805/4806 constitutes the refereed proceedings of 10 international workshops and papers of the OTM Academy Doctoral Consortium held as part of OTM 2007 in Vilamoura, Portugal, in November 2007. The 126 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 241 submissions to the workshops. The first volume begins with 23 additional revised short or poster papers of the OTM 2007 main conferences.
