## Description

Mathematical modelling of physiological systems promises to advance our understanding of complex biological phenomena and pathophysiology of diseases. In this book, the authors adopt a mathematical approach to characterize and explain the functioning of the gastrointestinal system. Using the mathematical foundations of thin shell theory, the authors patiently and comprehensively guide the reader through the fundamental theoretical concepts, via step-by-step derivations and mathematical exercises, from basic theory to complex physiological models. Applications to nonlinear problems related to the biomechanics of abdominal viscera and the theoretical limitations are discussed. Special attention is given to questions of complex geometry of organs, effects of boundary conditions on pellet propulsion, as well as to clinical conditions, e.g. functional dyspepsia, intestinal dysrhythmias and the effect of drugs to treat motility disorders. With end of chapter problems, this book is ideal for bioengineers and applied mathematicians.

Review: The depth needed, but be prepared to earn your stripes. Adequate background required. - This book is a rigorous workout on developing the foundations to start analyzing GI motor function. You absolutely need the math background of pde's to make use of this material. The exercises are useful but leave a bit to be desired as they are basically asking you to derive the equations in the book for specialized cases of different coordinate systems. A computer simulation orientated project based exercise set would have been a welcomed companion to this enclosed content. There is no other book I am aware of that provides this content. It helped that I purchased it at a super low price due to desertcart screwing up the listing for the author/publisher. Even at the current listed price, it is a good deal. This book has potentially 1000s of dollars worth of information in the right hands.
