Fiber scale properties such as orientation and crimp are described in detail. Structurally-based constitutive models are given throughout the book, not only to avoid ambiguities in material characterization, but also to offer insights into the function, structure, and mechanics of tissue components. A statement of future directions of the field is also given, including how advancements, such as state-of-the-art computational modeling and optical measurements of tissue\/cells structures, are taking structure-based modeling to the next level.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book also:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProvides a comprehensive view of tissue modeling across multiple systems\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBroadens readers’ understanding of state-of-the-art computational modeling and optical measurements of tissue\/cells structures\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDescribes in detail fiber scale properties such as orientation and crimp\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2016-01-29\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781489976291\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4899-7630-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 469\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44395467636876,"sku":"9781489976291","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781489976291.jpg?v=1779058985","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781489976291","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
