Synopsis

Biomechanics of the Female Reproductive System: Breast and Pelvic Organs: From Models to Patients synthesizes complementary advances in women's reproductive biomechanics, medical imaging analysis, patient-specific characterization, and computational finite element models. The book discusses the biomechanical aspects related to the breast and female pelvic floor system at each step of development. The table of contents also covers certain events and diseases, including cancers, delivery, aging, breast, hysterectomy or prolapse surgery. It presents the main biomechanical experimental results obtained and models developed this last decade to highlight the importance of accounting for patient-specific history and aging characteristics to consider damage growth effect and impact.

As part of Elsevier's Biomechanics of Living Organs series, this book provides an opportunity for students, researchers, clinicians and engineers to study the main topics related to the biomechanics of the women's reproductive system in a single book written by a global base of experts.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

He is a Professor of Mechanical Engineering with a specialty in mechanics of materials and computational mechanics. Prior to joining Cal State LA, he was a Professor in a higher education school of engineering: Centrale Lille. He still interacts with his former institution and his research is developed in a synergy between France and the USA; his specialty now is Biomedical Engineering.

His research activities are based on the triptych of mechanics of materials: experimental characterization constitutive modelling, and numerical and computational methods.

He is focused on soft polymers and bio-polymers. His activities can be summarized in 3 fields:

-Behavior, and damage of synthetic polymers
-Behavior of human soft tissue and medical implants,
-Development and design of Medical Devices for patient-specific surgery.

Pr. Michel Cosson is the Medical director of the UNF3S French numerical university. He is involved in 3D anatomy and pedagogical research. He is also the Head of the Gynecological unit of the University Hospital in Lille, France and Professor of Gynecology Obstetrics at the Medical University. He is the author and co-author of several publications. Pr. Cosson's areas of interest include biomechanical properties of pelvic tissues & 3D biomechanical simulation of the female pelvic cavity.

Poul's research focuses on using novel instrumentation, detailed computational models, and quantitative descriptions of physical processes to gain a better understanding of human physiology. Many of his projects couple mathematical modelling with innovative instrumentation to improve our ability to understand and interpret measurements of complex biological systems, subject to the constraints of well-understood physical conservation and balance laws.
