DESCRIPTION:
Five Stars christianna Powell
A section on experimental techniques provides a springboard for future research efforts in the subject area.Uses language and math that is appropriate and conducive for undergraduate learning, containing many worked examples and end of chapter problemsAll engineering concepts and equations are developed within a biological contextCovers topics in the traditional biofluids curriculum, as well as addressing other systems in the body that can be described by biofluid mechanics principles, such as air flow through the lungs, joint lubrication, intraocular fluid movement, and renal transportClinical applications are discussed throughout the book, providing practical applications for the concepts discussed. Both broad and deep in coverage, Rubenstein shows that fluid mechanics principles can be applied not only to blood circulation, but also to air flow through the lungs, joint lubrication, intraocular fluid movement and renal transport. .
