The second, more extensive part discusses particular physiological systems, with chapters on calcium dynamics, bursting oscillations and secretion, cardiac cells, muscles, intercellular communication, the circulatory system, the immune system, wound healing, the respiratory system, the visual system, hormone physiology, renal physiology, digestion, the visual system and hearing. New chapters on Calcium Dynamics, Neuroendocrine Cells and Regulation of Cell Function have been included. Reviews from first edition: Keener and Sneyd's Mathematical Physiology is the first comprehensive text of its kind that deals exclusively with the interplay between mathematics and physiology. Writing a book like this is an audacious act! -Society of Mathematical Biology Keener and Sneyd's is unique in that it attempts to present one of the most important subfields of biology and medicine, physiology, in terms of mathematical "language", rather than organizing materials around mathematical methodology. -SIAM review

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biomedical Signal Analysis Comprehensive resource covering recent developments, applications of current interest, and advanced techniques for biomedical signal analysis Biomedical Signal Analysis provides extensive insight into digital signal processing techniques for filtering, identification, characterization, classification, and analysis of biomedical signals with the aim of computer-aided diagnosis, taking a unique approach by presenting case studies encountered in the authors’ research work. Each chapter begins with the statement of a biomedical signal problem, followed by a selection of real-life case studies and illustrations with the associated signals. Signal processing, modeling, or analysis techniques are then presented, starting with relatively simple “textbook” methods, followed by more sophisticated research-informed approaches. Each chapter concludes with solutions to practical applications. Illustrations of real-life biomedical signals and their derivatives are included throughout. The third edition expands on essential background material and advanced topics without altering the underlying pedagogical approach and philosophy of the successful first and second editions. The book is enhanced by a large number of study questions and laboratory exercises as well as an online repository with solutions to problems and data files for laboratory work and projects. Biomedical Signal Analysis provides theoretical and practical information on: The origin and characteristics of several biomedical signals Analysis of concurrent, coupled, and correlated processes, with applications in monitoring of sleep apnea Filtering for removal of artifacts, random noise, structured noise, and physiological interference in signals generated by stationary, nonstationary, and cyclostationary processes Detection and characterization of events, covering methods for QRS detection, identification of heart sounds, and detection of the dicrotic notch Analysis of waveshape and waveform complexity Interpretation and analysis of biomedical signals in the frequency domain Mathematical, electrical, mechanical, and physiological modeling of biomedical signals and systems Sophisticated analysis of nonstationary, multicomponent, and multisource signals using wavelets, time-frequency representations, signal decomposition, and dictionary-learning methods Pattern classification and computer-aided diagnosis Biomedical Signal Analysis is an ideal learning resource for senior undergraduate and graduate engineering students.

In particular, the formation and remodeling of stress fibers, cytoskeletal contractility, cell adhesion and the mechanical regulation of fibroblast migration in healing myocardial infarcts are discussed. The essential ingredients of continuum mechanics are provided. Constitutive models of fiber-reinforced materials with an emphasis on arterial walls and the myocardium are discussed and the important influence of residual stresses on material response emphasized. The mechanics and function of the heart, the brain and adipose tissues are discussed as well. Particular attention is focused on microstructural and multi-scale modeling, finite element implementation and simulation of cells and tissues.

Book Computational Models in Biomedical Engineering

Download or read book Computational Models in Biomedical Engineering written by Milos Kojic and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2022-09-11 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computational Models in Biomedical Engineering: Finite Element Models Based on Smeared Physical Fields: Theory, Solutions, and Software discusses novel computational methodologies developed by the authors that address a variety of topics in biomedicine, with concepts that rely on the so-called smeared physical field built into the finite element method. A new and straightforward methodology is represented by their Kojic Transport Model (KTM), where a composite smeared finite element (CSFE) as a FE formulation contains different fields (e.g., drug concentration, electrical potential) in a composite medium, such as tissue, which includes the capillary and lymphatic system, different cell groups and organelles. The continuum domains participate in the overall model according to their volumetric fractions. The governing laws and material parameters are assigned to each of the domains. Furthermore, the continuum fields are coupled at each FE node by connectivity elements which take into account biological barriers such as vessel walls and cells. - Provides a methodology based on the smeared concept within the finite element method which is simple, straightforward and easy to use - Enables the modeling of complex physical field problems and the mechanics of biological systems - Includes features that are illustrated in chapters devoted to applications surrounding tissue, heart and lung - Includes a methodology that can serve as a basis for further enhancements by including additional phenomena which can be described by relevant relationships, derived theoretically or experimentally observed in laboratories and clinics
