This monograph offers an in-depth investigation of Diabetic foot ulceration through the lens of biomechanics and computational modelling. It addresses a critical healthcare challenge faced predominantly by elderly diabetic patients i.e. foot ulcers resulting from peripheral neuropathy, arterial disorders, and irregular plantar loading. Despite extensive clinical attention, the biomechanical mechanisms behind ulcer progression remain inadequately understood, limiting the effectiveness of current prevention and management strategies. This book consolidates advanced research methodologies and...

Soft tissue simulants, essential for automotive and ballistic testing, medical, and surgical training, have traditionally relied on cadavers and animal tissues. However, their biomechanical properties change with time due to dehydration after death and the biomechanics of the animal models cannot be translated and compared with the human tissues. This book compiles various synthetic tissues used in these applications, addressing their characterization and industry-wide applications. While older simulants lack biofidelity, recent advancements in biofidelic soft tissue simulants offer...
