Multiscale Modeling in Computational Biomechanics

Dear Colleagues,

Computational biomechanics has been intensively investigated in the last several decades for the study of human body systems (musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, digestive, etc.) at multiple scales. Computational biomechanics is usually coupled with experimental biomechanics to enhance our understanding of the human body shape–function properties and their causal relationships. Thus, novel biomarkers and quantitative indicators have been extracted for clinical decision support and medical device optimization.

We are pleased to invite you to contribute to this challenging and exciting field. This Special Issue aims to bring together different scientific communities to present methodological approaches as well as practical applications related to the multiscale modeling of the human body.

In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:

• Cell and tissue biomechanics;
• Organ biomechanics;
• Musculoskeletal biomechanics;
• Human locomotion and multi-body dynamics;
• Artificial intelligence, deep learning and biomechanics;
• Mixed reality and biomechanics;
• Clinical decision support;
• Multiscale characterization and multi-physical modeling;
• Multimodal medical imaging.

I look forward to receiving your contributions.

Prof. Dr. Tien Tuan Dao
Guest Editor

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Bioengineering is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
