This interdisciplinary collection of surveys highlights the central role played by the mathematical modeling of mechanical properties having an effect on the living matter. The book presents in a single, self-contained resource topics that are widely scattered across the literature in a variety of journals having mutually nonintersecting communities of readers, such as applied mathematicians, engineers, biologists, and physicians.

Topics covered include mechanical properties of biological materials, biochemical and biomechanical aspects of blood flow, formation and growth of intracranial aneurysms, modeling of natural tissue substitutes, including cardiovascular and biodegradable stents, regulation of hemostatic system function, and mechanical properties of tumors, bones and cell membranes.

Modeling of Biological Materials may be used in interdisciplinary, introductory courses covering various biomechanical topics for graduate students in applied mathematics, engineering, and biomedicine. The surveys featured in the book will also be a lasting and valuable reference for a wide community of researchers, practitioners, and advanced students in the above-mentioned fields.
