Preface
The idea of this monograph is to present the latest developments and applications of computational tools related to the biosciences and medical engineering. Computational tools such as the finite element method, computer-aided design and optimization as well as visualization techniques such as computed axial tomography open completely new research fields with a closer joining of the engineering and bio/medical area. Nevertheless, there are still challenges since both directions are based on quite different ways of education or even the “language” is sometimes different from discipline to discipline. This monograph reports the results of different multidisciplinary research projects, for example, from the areas of scaffolds and
