Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue provides a platform for researchers and professionals in biomechanics to disseminate and discuss recent computational methods and numerical analyses. This issue focuses on the design and application of new algorithms, modeling techniques, and simulations that address critical issues in the field of biomechanics, including topics such as tissue analysis, prostheses, passive safety, and medical robotics.
Thus, this Special Issue explores the role of computational biomechanics in improving our understanding of the behavior of biological tissues under various conditions. We invite studies that focus on tissue modeling, mechanical characterization of tissues, and the use of finite element and multiscale modeling approaches to predict the response of tissues under different conditions from a biological perspective.
Contributions related to designing, optimizing, and evaluating prosthetic and orthotic devices through computational tools are especially encouraged, as these devices are critical to patients' mobility and quality of life. Other key topics in this issue encompass the development of endoprostheses, with a particular focus on structural analysis, fatigue performance, and biological tissue integration. Research on systems, such as failure prediction, reliability and testing, and safety design issues, is crucial for ensuring greater patient safety in medical applications.
Contributions dedicated to medical robotics are also welcomed, especially mechanisms related to human–robot collaboration, surgical assistance, and rehabilitation capabilities. This Special Issue invites both theoretical studies and accomplished research with experimental validation based on real-world applications.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
