Biofluid Mechanics de James B. Grotberg

Biofluid Mechanics: Cambridge Texts in Biomedical Engineering

Autor James B. Grotberg
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 21 iul 2021
Condensing 40 years of teaching experience, this unique textbook will provide students with an unrivalled understanding of the fundamentals of fluid mechanics, and enable them to place that understanding firmly within a biological context. Each chapter introduces, explains, and expands a core concept in biofluid mechanics, establishing a firm theoretical framework for students to build upon in further study. Practical biofluid applications, clinical correlations, and worked examples throughout the book provide real-world scenarios to help students quickly master key theoretical topics. Examples are drawn from biology, medicine, and biotechnology with applications to normal function, disease, and devices, accompanied by over 500 figures to reinforce student understanding. Featuring over 120 multicomponent end-of-chapter problems, flexible teaching pathways to enable tailor-made course structures, and extensive Matlab and Maple code examples, this is the definitive textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying a biologically-grounded course in fluid mechanics.

Recenzii

'The author has an M.D. as well as a Ph.D. and exemplifies every fundamental aspect of fluid mechanics with real physiological and clinical applications. Novel features are the display of MATLAB or Maple codes to derive numerical results and the realistic homework problem sets at the end of each chapter, in which the students are led through the elementary mathematical stages of the solution but must compute and plot the quantitative results for themselves. A refreshing approach to an increasingly important area of biomedical engineering, from which instructors as well as students will learn a lot.' Timothy Pedley, University of Cambridge
'This book by a preeminent biofluid mechanics researcher addresses a critical educational need. I believe readers will benefit immensely from the lucid explanations, interesting applications and historical context, and breadth of problems the text contains. This treatise provides a detailed coverage of biofluid mechanics that is appropriate for courses at a variety of levels, and it is suitable as a reference for those working in this field. It's delightful to read.' Joseph Bull, Tulane University
'Professor Grotberg's new Biofluid Mechanics textbook is a comprehensive volume building from basics (kinematics, conservation of mass and momentum) to advanced topics (flow in flexible tubes, porous media and many others). The lucid chapters reflect Professor Grotberg's many years of experience in biofluids, both as a highly accomplished researcher and experienced teacher. General principles are presented clearly and bioengineering applications are plentiful throughout the text. It is a modern textbook with many illustrations, worked examples, computer simulations and end of chapter problems. The material is most appropriate for an advanced undergraduate or graduate course in biofluids with all the required material presented in a single volume. Congratulations to Professor Grotberg for this excellent textbook.' John M. Tarbell, The City College of New York
'An excellent, most engagingly readable introduction to the realm of biofluid mechanics. Covering the essential underlying mechanics principles both physically and mathematically, the reader is taken on a clearly explained and interwoven journey through wide ranging and fascinating real world examples. Guaranteed to enthuse readers to study further, this is an invaluable book for course students and researchers alike.' Robert Schroter, Imperial College London
'Biofluid mechanics is fundamental to understanding a wide range of medical and biological problems. This new textbook by James Grotberg offers a comprehensive, in depth presentation of biofluid phenomena with exceptional rigor, rich with an extensive collection of problems that encourage students' engagement and understanding. A textbook that is sure to become a classic.' Roger Dale Kamm, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
'This welcome addition to the biofluid mechanics literature offers an outstanding introduction to fluid mechanics in the context of understanding and modeling human biology. The author is a renowned fluid mechanician, an exceptional teacher, and a practicing doctor, and the book reflect his extensive experience and expertise. The text is clear, the problems are well chosen, and the approach is impeccable. An excellent choice for the advanced undergraduate or graduate student, it also presents a comprehensive reference for a more general audience.'  Alexander J. Smits, Princeton University
