Experimental Methods in Orthopaedic Biomechanics is the first book in the field that focuses on the practicalities of performing a large variety of in-vitro laboratory experiments. Explanations are thorough, informative, and feature standard lab equipment to enable biomedical engineers to advance from a ‘trial and error’ approach to an efficient system recommended by experienced leaders.

This is an ideal tool for biomedical engineers or biomechanics professors in their teaching, as well as for those studying and carrying out lab assignments and projects in the field. The experienced authors have established a standard that researchers can test against in order to explain the strengths and weaknesses of testing approaches.

Radovan Zdero obtained a doctorate in mechanical engineering from Queen’s University (Kingston, Canada) with a focus on biomechanics and biomaterials. He is the Research Director of the Orthopaedic Biomechanics Lab at Victoria Hospital (London, Canada). He is also a Professor in both the Dept. of Surgery and the Dept. of Mechanical Engineering at Western University (London, Canada). His research involves measuring mechanical properties of biological tissue, stress testing of orthopaedic implants, and developing new biomaterials.
