An Introduction to Biomechanics: Solids and Fluids, Analysis and Design
暫譯: 生物力學導論：固體與流體，分析與設計

Jay D. Humphrey is John C. Malone Professor and former Chair of the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Yale University. He received the Ph.D. degree in Engineering Science and Mechanics from The Georgia Institute of Technology and completed a post-doctoral fellowship in Cardiovascular Research at The Johns Hopkins University. He authored the book Cardiovascular Solid Mechanics: Cells, Tissues, and Organs, co-authored the book Style and Ethics of Communication in Science and Engineering, co-edited the book Cardiovascular Soft Tissue Mechanics, and authored or co-authored chapters for over 30 other books or encyclopedias as well as over 400 archival technical papers. He served as Chair of the United States National Committee on Biomechanics and was founding co-Editor In Chief for the international journal Biomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology. He is Fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (Bioengineering Division), the American Institute of Medical and Biological Engineers, and the International Academy of Medical and Biological Engineering.

Sherry L. O'Rourke is a Technical Field Engineer at Medtronic Inc. in the Cardiac Rhythm Disease Management Division. She received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in Biomedical Engineering from Texas A&M University and co-authored an archival paper on the biomechanics of the lens capsule of the eye, which is important in understanding device design for cataract surgery. Since graduation she has spent her professional life dedicated to designing, developing, and teaching programs to help physicians, residents, and nurses ensure that patients receive the maximum benefit from pacemakers and implantable defibrillators that are designed for those suffering from chronic heart disease.

Jay D. Humphrey 是耶魯大學生物醫學工程系的約翰·C·馬龍教授及前系主任。他在喬治亞理工學院獲得工程科學與力學的博士學位，並在約翰霍普金斯大學完成心血管研究的博士後研究。他著有《心血管固體力學：細胞、組織與器官》一書，並共同撰寫《科學與工程中的溝通風格與倫理》一書，還共同編輯《心血管軟組織力學》一書，並為超過30本其他書籍或百科全書撰寫或共同撰寫章節，以及發表超過400篇技術論文。他曾擔任美國生物力學國家委員會主席，並是國際期刊《生物力學與機械生物學建模》的創始共同主編。他是美國機械工程師學會（生物工程部）、美國醫療與生物工程學會及國際醫療與生物工程學院的院士。

Sherry L. O'Rourke 是美敦力公司心臟節律疾病管理部的技術現場工程師。她在德州農工大學獲得生物醫學工程的學士及碩士學位，並共同撰寫了一篇關於眼睛晶狀體囊的生物力學的論文，這對於理解白內障手術的裝置設計至關重要。自畢業以來，她的職業生涯致力於設計、開發和教授計劃，以幫助醫生、住院醫師和護士確保患者從為慢性心臟病患者設計的心臟起搏器和植入式除顫器中獲得最大益處。
