Implementing 1D models in arterial simulations.Modeling has provided not only answers to questions related to normal or pathological function but also predicted multiple adaptations of the total and individual dynamic structures that are included in cardiovascular research. The original idea of this book was to produce a textbook to be used for the course 'Modeling in Biomechanics and Mechanobiology', which is oriented to Artificial Organs and Tissue Engineering at Buenos Aires University, Argentina. This book brings together the challenges and experiences of academic scientists, leading engineers, industry researchers and students to enable them to analyse results of all aspects of biomechanics and biomedical engineering. It also provides a springboard to discuss the practical challenges and to propose solutions on this complex subject.Biomedical engineering graduate and undergraduate students, clinical engineers, electrical engineers, biomedical technicians and cardiologists.Also available in print.Mode of access: World Wide Web.System requirements: Adobe Acrobat Reader, EPUB reader, or Kindle reader.Ricardo L. Armentano is a Uruguayan professor and researcher who has worked in biomedical engineering and cardiovascular systems. He currently serves as the director of the GIBIO research group at the National Technological University--Buenos Aires Regional Faculty. Dr. Edmundo I. Cabrera Fischer is an evaluator of CONICET, of the Organization of Ibero-American States for Education, Science and Culture and of the National Agency for the Promotion of Science and Technology (ANPCyT), He is currently a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology (USA) and member of the International Society of the History of Medicine. Dr. Leandro J. Cymberknop is a coordinator of GIBIO (Research and Development Group in Bioengineering), vice president of EMB Argentine chapter and advisor of EMB student branch and is currently at the Universidad Tecnol?ogica Nacional, Buenos Aires, Argentina.Title from PDF title page (viewed on May 6, 2019).
