Blast Injury Science and Engineering: A Guide for Clinicians and Researchers
Editat de Anthony M. J. Bull, Jon Clasper, Peter F. Mahoneyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 apr 2018
Blast injuries are prevalent. While the current conflict in Afghanistan is reaching its final stages, the legacy of landmines will sadly ensure that injuries and fatalities will continue to occur. The understanding of these injuries and the science behind their mitigation and treatment is a multi-disciplinary effort. Current knowledge has rapidly grown due to recent conflicts, yet the learning has not yet been captured in any formal way.

Recenzii
“This multiauthored book describes the physics, materials response, engineering principles, and clinical impact of blast injury. … Basic scientists, materials specialists, clinical investigators, and clinicians treating victims of blast injury are an appropriate audience for this book from medical, engineering, military, and law enforcement agencies all based in the U.K. … Engineers will appreciate the mathematics of explosion force, while clinicians will find helpful reviews of physics and incident modeling.” (David J. Dries, Doody's Book Reviews, September, 2017)
Textul de pe ultima copertă
This useful book helps readers develop and strengthen their understanding of the basic science, engineering and medicine behind blast injuries. The multi-disciplinary team of authors bring together their knowledge to give detailed descriptions of how these basic approaches can be used to further the mitigation and treatment of blast injuries. New areas of application are also explored through a series of case studies, and extensive use of illustrations help explain key concepts.
Blast Injury Science and Engineering: A Guide for Clinicians and Researchers is a comprehensive interdisciplinary text aimed at clinical personnel needing a deeper understanding of injury mechanisms, those engaged in injury mitigation research, military scientists and engineers, as well as students of engineering, bioengineering and forensic science.
