Esthetics and Biomechanics in Orthodontics, 2nd Edition provides everything you need to know to successfully apply biomechanics in clinical orthodontics. This edition features new content in the areas of tooth movement, treating Class III malocclusions, skeletal anchorage, Surgery First treatment plans, and space closure. In addition to comprehensive guidance on basic biomechanic principles, this state-of-the-art reference also shows how all techniques can apply biomechanical principles to improve the force delivery, understand and prevent side effects, and achieve predictable results.

La 4ème de couv. indique : "A l'inverse des pratiques sportives de loisirs qui font globalement appel à des activités physiques de longue durée réalisées à faible intensité, les sports de compétition qu'ils soient individuels ou collectifs, sollicitent d'autres aptitudes physiques que la seule qualité d'endurance. Alors que les ouvrages ou magazines guidant les pratiquants des sports d'endurance sont très nombreux et faciles d'accès, les ouvrages de physiologie d'entraînement centrés sur les pratiques intenses sont beaucoup plus rares. Le but de ce livre est donc de donner aux lecteurs - qu'ils soient entraîneurs en formation ou en questionnement, étudiants en sciences et techniques des activités physiques et sportives (STAPS) ou pratiquants éclairés - les clefs des bases physiologiques de ces sports pratiqués à haute intensité continus (athlétisme, natation, aviron...) ou discontinus (sports duels, collectifs ou d'expression) et de proposer des exemples variés d'entraînements. Ainsi, la volonté des auteures est d'apporter un éclairage dans le choix de ces objectifs d'entraînement. Désireuses d'ancrer leur travail sur la réalité des pratiques, elles décrivent, au préalable, la façon dont les sportifs gèrent leur capital énergétique, en compétition, avant d'approfondir les ressources énergétiques adaptées à ce type d'exercice intense. Les problématiques suivantes structurent la suite de la réflexion : comment produire de grandes quantités d'énergie ? Comment faire durer une forte production d'énergie ? Comment mieux répéter les exercices de haute intensité? Comment les adapter à l'entraînement ?"

This book offers a succinct but comprehensive description of the mechanics of muscle contraction and legged terrestrial locomotion. It describes on the one hand how the fundamental properties of muscle tissue affect the mechanics of locomotion, and on the other, how the mechanics of locomotion modify the mechanism of muscle operation under different conditions. Further, the book reports on the design and results of experiments conducted with two goals. The first was to describe the physiological function of muscle tissue (which may be considered as the “motor”) contracting at a constant length, during shortening, during lengthening, and under a condition that occurs most frequently in the back-and-forth movement of the limbs during locomotion, namely the stretch-shortening cycle of the active muscle. The second objective was to analyze the interaction between the motor and the “machine” (the skeletal lever system) during walking and running in different scenarios with respect to speed, step frequency, body mass, gravity, age, and pathological gait. The book will be of considerable interest to physiology, biology and physics students, and provides researchers with stimuli for further experimental and analytical work.

The mechanics of biological tissues is a multidisciplinary and rapidly expanding area of research. This book highlights some important research directions that combine mechanical sciences with exciting new developments in biology. It includes state-of-the-art articles on: Tissue growth and remodelling – general continuum theories of growth, remodelling and adaptation, with specific applications to arterial, tendon and cartilage growth and to bone healing. Micromechanics, cells and matrix – measurements of the mechanical properties of cells, engineering of cell systems, constitutive and computational modelling of cells and cell-substrate interactions, and the transition from microscopic modelling to its macroscopic consequences. Arteries in health and disease – analysis of residual stress and its development, modelling the constitutive properties of arterial walls, computational analysis of the effect of stenting on the arterial wall, studies of collagen fibre distributions in saccular aneurysms and the interaction between blood flow and aneurysm development. Biological tissues – the musculo-skeletal system, heart valves, ligaments, intervertebral discs, the uterus and vocal fold tissues, with experimental, modelling and computational perspectives. Image-based analysis – illustration of imaging techniques that have great potential for the analysis of tissue properties and pathologies and for guiding the design of engineered tissue constructs. This collection of papers should be of interest to theoretical, computational and experimental researchers and doctoral students in the area of biomechanics and in related areas of engineering, biology and medicine.
