Bone Remodeling Process by Rabeb Ben Kahla, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Bone Remodelling Process: From Biology to Mechanobiological Modellingprovides a literature review of bone in normal physiological conditions and in pathological conditions, highlighting the attack vectors of each bone disease. Other sections are devoted to the mathematical descriptions of bone remodeling and how to apply models using the finite element method in investigating bone biomechanics. The book builds an overall image of the complex communication network established between diverse remodeling actors that is based on overwhelming control evidence revealed over recent years. In addition, it regroups models, allowing readers to analyze and assess bone mechanical and biological properties. Finally, the book details the cellular mechanisms that allow bone to adapt its microarchitecture to the requirements of the human body, which is a main issue in bone biology. Covers a core topic in bone biomechanics in each chapterProvides a multidisciplinary view that effectively links orthopedics, cellular biology, mechanics and computer simulationDraws an overall image about bone biology and cell interactions to help identify cell populations that are crucial for the remodeling process | Bone Remodeling Process by Rabeb Ben Kahla, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
