Non-linear finite element methods in biomechanics: from the single cell to the organ level
Workshop on Biomechanics and Chemotaxis, Fri, 14 Dec, 2007
Speaker: Peter E. McHugh
Abstract
In recent years non-linear finite element methods have been developed and exploited to great effect to address and solve many important problems in biomechanics and medical implant analysis and design, and in terms of dealing with both hard and soft tissue. In particular, great progress has been made in spanning the size scale, from both the cellular level to the whole organ level.
This presentation gives some background on the fundamental aspects of the non-linear finite element method that are most relevant in biomechanics, and then proceeds to explore some applications in single cell mechanics, tissue mechanics and vascular implant design.
