Summary

Complete coverage of everything from theory to practical modeling and simulation techniques of human physiology for medical engineers Modeling and Simulation in Biomedical Engineering: Applications in Cardiorespitory Physiologyis a single compact and consistent reference. You will acquire an understanding of the theoretical and practical aspects of modeling and simulation of dynamic systems, as well as models of the cardiorespiratory systems and their natural and pharmacologic controls. When working through the text and examples, you will also acquire the skills to evaluate and adapt existing physiologic models or create new ones for specific applications and integrate clinical, physiological, physical, mathematical, and software engineering considerations in a goal-oriented fashion. Modeling and Simulation in Biomedical Engineering: Applications in Cardiorespitory Physiology Presents several applications of modeling and simulation of human cardiorespiratory physiology Includes state variable models of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems so that you can model other physiological systems using state variable techniques Is written by the immediate past president of SESAM (Society in Europe for Simulation Applied to Medicine) Covers both theory and practical aspects of modeling and simulation of dynamic systems Authoritative coverage: Introduction; Interface and Model Requirement; Conceptual Models; Mathematical Models; Discretization and Simulation Results; Interpretation of Simulation Results; The Cardiovascular System; Respiration; Physiologic and Pharmacologic Control; Multiple Models; Physical and Hybrid Models; Modeling Age and Disease; Setting Requirements for Educational; Simulators and Models References
