Mathematical Modeling definition
Mathematical Modeling and the Scientific Method Why Do We Do Mathematical Modeling? Some Methods of Mathematical Modeling conservation and balance principles, and consequences of linearity. We will expand these themes…
Muscle action
What is Muscle Action? The process of muscle contraction is central to all fitness, strength and sports training, yet there are many aspects of this apparently well-known phenomenon that are…
soft tissues
The soft tissues of the body Soft tissues are found throughout the body. There are many types of soft tissue, including fat, muscle, fibrous tissue, blood vessels, lymph vessels and nerves. Soft…
Functional Adaptation
What Is a Functional Adaptation? A functional adaptation is a structure or behavior that has arisen sometime in the evolutionary history of a species to aid in that species', or…
Blood circulation
blood circulation The circulation of blood refers to its continual flow from the heart, through branching arteries, to reach and traverse the microscopic vessels in all parts of the body, reconverging in…
Anisotropy
Anisotropic solids also are common in nature and technology. Examples are single crystals; polycrystals in which the grains are not completely random in their crystallographic orientation but have a “texture,”…
Maxwell Voight models
Maxwell Profile With the Sehwag-esque ability to enthrall as well as exasperate, Glenn Maxwell blurred the line copy-book and agricultural, pulling off unorthodoxy with ease and fluency. Making use of…
Constitutive equation of viscoelasticity
Constitutive Equations: Viscoelasticity I. Overview In the last section we introduced linear and nonlinear elastic constitutive models for materials and tissues. In many cases, elastic constitutive models work well when…
What are the characteristics of cardiac muscle?
The student understands the ionic basis of the spontaneous electrical activity of cardiac muscle cells: Describes how membrane potentials are created across semipermeable membranes by transmembrane ion concentration differences.…
Modeling of Blood vessels
Fractals Cardiovascular system Hemodynamics Hemodynamics means the study of blood flow and related forces in moving the blood through the cardiovascular system. It discusses the physical principles of blood flow…
