Biomechanics provides a means to quantitatively consider the implications of workplace design. The benefit of biomechanical quantification is that it can help determine how much exposure to a risk factor is too much exposure. Given the escalating health care costs associated with work, these analyses are becoming very important to industry.

Stereolithographic models for biomechanical testing
The Knee, 2006Variable properties and limited availability are pitfalls in using cadaveric bones for implant stability tests. Artificial bones avoid these, but tailoring them to specific studies may be difficult. Stereolithography (SLA) techniques produce tailor-made bones with realistic geometries, but their lower Young's modulus might affect outcomes.

Biomechanical Model of Corneal Transplantation
Journal of Refractive Surgery, 2006ABSTRACT PURPOSE: Refractive consequences of corneal transplants are analyzed using corneal biomechanical models assuming homogeneous and in homogeneous stiffness distributions across the cornea. Additionally, refractive effects of grafts combined with volume removal procedures are also evaluated to develop methods to reduce postoperative ...

Biomechanics of Hydrocephalus: A new theoretical model
Neurosurgery, 1987The finite element method (FEM), an advanced method of computer simulation, is used to examine biomechanical studies of hydrocephalus. Biot's theory of consolidation, which describes the mechanical behavior of a porous medium containing viscous fluid, is applied to represent the coupled behavior of tissue and fluid in the hydrocephalic brain.

Proceedings of the Human Factors Society Annual Meeting, 1976
Over the last ten years, several biomechanical models have been developed to predict the strength capability of a person or population. The development of these models, their validity and uses will be reviewed in this paper. Limitations and the need for more research in this problem area will be presented.

Dynamic modeling and jaw biomechanics
Orthodontics & Craniofacial Research, 2003Abstract Author– Hannam AGBioengineered simulations of dynamic events in the human masticatory system are relatively new. A primary advantage is their ability to integrate structure and function in cause‐and‐effect scenarios. By permitting detailed analyses of these interactions, and the prototyping of prosthetic additions, the models ...
