During the last decade, finite element analysis has been applied in orthopedic biomechanics and spine biomechanics research widely. A number of finite element methods have been developed to describe mechanical behavior of soft tissues. Up to now, no existing model includes large deformation, material viscoelasticity and inertial effects, which are important features of the mechanical behavior of the biological tissue. This book develops a finite element method that includes poro-viscoelastic material behavior, finite deformations, inertia and mechano-electrochemical effects for the modeling of biological tissue. It covers derivative of governing equations, numerical implementation, validation, and finally application in biomechanics. This book should be useful to researchers and engineers in biomechanics for understanding mechanical behavior of soft tissues in dynamical process, or someone else who learns finite element method as well as finite element programming.
