Mathematical Foundations and Biomechanics of the Digestive System

Discover the intricate relationship between mathematics and the biomechanics of the digestive system in Mathematical Foundations and Biomechanics of the Digestive System by Roustem Miftahof. Published by Cambridge University Press in 2010, this comprehensive hardback book spans 240 pages, delving into the mathematical models that elucidate the biomechanics of abdominal organs.

Starting with the fundamentals of thin shell theory, Miftahof expertly guides readers through the functions of various abdominal organs. The book explores finite deformations, boundary condition effects, and electrodynamics, while also addressing related medical conditions and the impacts of pharmaceuticals. Ideal for students, researchers, and professionals in the fields of biology, biomechanics, and medical engineering, this text serves as a valuable resource for understanding gastrointestinal motility and the mathematical modeling of the gastrointestinal system.
