Recently, the English academic monograph Biomechanics of Injury and Prevention, edited by Prof. Fan Yubo and Prof. Wang Lizhen of Beihang University, was published with Springer, an internationally renowned academic publisher.

Injuries to various parts of the body often occur in aerospace, traffic, sports, and in everyday life, which may result in high rates of disability and even mortality.

Biomechanics is a cross-discipline that applies mechanics theory and method to study physiological activities of human body. Biomechanics of Injury and Prevention focuses on the study of injury mechanism and protection methods, injury tolerance, diagnostic/therapeutic methods, and prevention measures of biological tissues or organs.

The team relied on 14 provincial and ministerial research platforms, including Key Laboratory of Biomechanics and Mechanobiology of Ministry of Education and Beijing Advanced Innovation Center for Biomedical Engineering, and completed the compilation of this book with the support of the Science Fund for Creative Research Groups of the National Natural Science Foundation of China, National Defense Foundation, and National Natural Science Foundation of China Youth Fund. This book introduces the team’s latest advances in the field of biomechanics of Injury and Prevention, covering injury biomechanical mechanism, diagnostic/therapeutic methods, injury tolerance, and prevention mechanism and methods.

Professor Ahmed Elsheikh, an internationally renowned expert in biomechanics and Dean of the School of Engineering from University of Liverpool, UK, wrote a preface to this book, in which he recognized and appreciated the outstanding academic contributions made by the editorial team in the field of biomechanics of Injury and Prevention.
