Computational modelling of biomechanics and biotribology in the musculoskeletal system biomaterials and tissue
Modelling is an important aspect of the design process for biomaterials and medical devices. By effectively modelling biomaterials and implants before their implantation, it is now possible to predict certain implant-tissue reactions, degradation and wear. Consequently, computational modelling is be...

| Summary: | Modelling is an important aspect of the design process for biomaterials and medical devices. By effectively modelling biomaterials and implants before their implantation, it is now possible to predict certain implant-tissue reactions, degradation and wear. Consequently, computational modelling is becoming increasingly important in the design and manufacture of biomedical materials, allowing scientists to more accurately tailor their materials' properties for the in vivo environment. Computational modelling of biomechanics and biotribology in the musculoskeletal system begins with an introducti |
