Mechanics of Biological Systems: Introduction to Mechanobiology and Experimental Techniques

by Yun Chen and Seungman Park

This book is an introduction to the mechanical properties, the force generating capacity, and the sensitivity to mechanical cues of the biological system.

To understand how these qualities govern many essential biological processes, we also discuss how to measure them. However, before delving into the details and the techniques, we will first learn the operational definitions in mechanics, such as force, stress, elasticity, viscosity...
