Optical Measurement Methods in Biomechanics


Add your own review!

Overview

Experimental measurements in biomechanics are important for gaining an understanding of the behaviour of natural structures, and in the design of components to replace or enhance their function. Problems related to the measurements in demanding situations are well established and are encouraging the application of alternative and new measurement methods of strain and displacement. This volume contains theoretical principles sufficient to gain an introduction to each technique, appreciating its capabilities and allowing an informed selection for research applications. It includes extensive reference to examples, case studies and published work. Bringing together expertise from the fields of optics and biomechanics the text describes holographic interferometry, electronic speckle pattern and speckle interferometry, photoelasticity, structured light techniques, stereo photogrammetry, spatial position and soft tissue deformation measurement and pressure sensitive film.
