Biomechanics: History, Applications, Technology & Science

Biomechanics is the study of the structure, function and motion of the mechanical aspects of biological systems using the methods of mechanics. It operates at any level, from whole organisms to organs, cells and cell organelles, and even proteins. Biomechanics is a branch of biophysics.
