Research related to the analysis of living structures (Biomechanics) has been carried outextensively in several distinct areas of science, such as, for example, mathematics, mechanical,physics, informatics, medicine and sports. However, for its successful achievement, numerousresearch topics should be considered, such as image processing and analysis, geometric andnumerical modelling, biomechanics, experimental analysis, mechanobiology and enhancedvisualization, and their application on real cases must be developed and more investigation isneeded. Additionally, enhanced hardware solutions and less invasive devices are demanded. Onthe other hand, Image Analysis (Computational Vision) aims to extract a high level of informationfrom static images or dynamical image sequences. An example of applications involving ImageAnalysis can be found in the study of the motion of structures from image sequences, shapereconstruction from images and medical diagnosis. As a multidisciplinary area, ComputationalVision considers techniques and methods from other disciplines, like from Artificial Intelligence,Signal Processing, mathematics, physics and informatics. Despite the work that has been done inthis area, more robust and efficient methods of Computational Imaging are still demanded in manyapplication domains, such as in medicine, and their validation in real scenarios needs to beexamined urgently. Recently, these two branches of science have been increasingly seen as beingstrongly connected and related, but no book series or journal has contemplated this increasinglystrong association. Hence, the main goal of this book series in Computational Vision andBiomechanics (LNCV&B) consists in the provision of a comprehensive forum for discussion onthe current state-of-the-art in these fields by emphasizing their connection. The book series covers(but is not limited to):

• Applications of Computational Vision andBiomechanics

• Biometrics and Biomedical Pattern Analysis

• Cellular Imaging and Cellular Mechanics

• Clinical Biomechanics

• Computational Bioimaging and Visualization

• Computational Biology in Biomedical Imaging

• Development of Biomechanical Devices

• Device and Technique Development forBiomedical Imaging

• Experimental Biomechanics

• Gait & Posture Mechanics

• Grid and High Performance Computing onComputational Vision and Biomechanics

• Image Processing and Analysis

• Image processing and visualization inBiofluids

• Image Understanding

• Material Models

• Mechanobiology

• Medical Image Analysis

• Molecular Mechanics

• Multi-modal Image Systems

• Multiscale Biosensors in Biomedical Imaging

• Multiscale Devices and BioMEMSfor Biomedical Imaging

• Musculoskeletal Biomechanics

• Multiscale Analysis in Biomechanics

• Neuromuscular Biomechanics

• Numerical Methods for Living Tissues

• Numerical Simulation

• Software Development on ComputationalVision and Biomechanics

• Sport Biomechanics

• Virtual Reality in Biomechanics

• Vision Systems

• Image-based Geometric Modeling and MeshGeneration

• Digital Geometry Algorithms for Computa-tional Vision and Visualization

In order to match the scope of the Book Series, each book has to include contents relating, orcombining both Image Analysis and mechanics.

Preface

The 16th International Symposium on Computer Methods in Biomechanics andBiomedical Engineering and the 4th Conference on Imaging and Visualization(CMBBE2019) were run together at Columbia University, New York City, USA,from August 14–16, 2019. We believe that CMBBE2019 had a strong impact onthe development of computational biomechanics and biomedical imaging andvisualization, particularly by identifying emerging areas of research and promotingthe collaboration and networking between participants. Actually, CMBBE2019included a record number of 384 oral presentations and 88 poster presentationswhich more than doubled the number of presentations of the previous CMBBE. Inaddition, renowned researchers delivered very interesting plenary keynotes,addressing current challenges in computational biomechanics and biomedicalimaging. This book includes the extended versions of selected works presented inCMBBE2019.

Briefly, the included 55 chapters address important topics in sports biome-chanics, cardiovascular mechanics, brain biomechanics and imaging, spinebiomechanics, growth and remodeling, soft tissue mechanics, bone and dentalbiomechanics, cellular and molecular biomechanics, computer-aided surgery, arti-ficial intelligence in biomechanics, in vivo imaging and visualization, and manyothers.

The editors would like to take this opportunity to thank the authors of the 55selected contributions for sharing their works, experiences, and knowledge, makingpossible their dissemination through this book.

About the Editors

Gerard A. Ateshian, Ph.D. is the Andrew WalzProfessor of Mechanical Engineering and director of theMusculoskeletal Research Laboratory at ColumbiaUniversity in New York City. His primary research is inthe field of soft tissue mechanics, with an emphasis oncartilage mechanics, lubrication, and tissue engineering,and the formulation of growth theories for biologicaltissues. In collaboration with Prof. Clark T. Hung atColumbia, he has translated his findings on cartilagemechanics to the field of functional cartilage tissueengineering, with a particular focus on the role ofmechanical loading in tissue growth. Together with Dr.Jeffrey A. Weiss at the University of Utah, he hasdeveloped open-source computational tools that facili-tate the modeling of tissue mechanics, transport, andgrowth processes (febio.org). He has applied and vali-dated these tools with the modeling of engineered car-tilage growth.

Kristin M. Myers, Ph.D. is an associate professor inthe Department of Mechanical Engineering at ColumbiaUniversity in the City of New York. In 2010, shefounded the Myers Soft Tissue Laboratory at Columbia,which uses experimental, theoretical, and computationalmechanics to solve problems in women’s health andreproductive biomechanics. With the clinical translationin mind, her laboratory is uncovering the structuralantecedents of preterm birth. Her current obstetricsresearch is done in collaboration with the Department ofObstetrics and Gynecology at the Columbia University
