Journal of Biomechanical Engineering
The Journal of Biomechanical Engineering reports research results
involving the application of mechanical engineering knowledge, skills
and principles to the conception, design, development, analysis, and
operation of biomechanical systems, including: artificial organs and
prostheses; bioinstrumentation and measurements; bioheat transfer;
biomaterials; biomechanics; bioprocess engineering; cellular mechanics;
design and control of biological systems; and physiological systems.

Journal of Medical Devices
Focusing on applied research and the development of new medical
devices or instrumentation, this new journal presents papers on devices
that improve diagnostic interventional and therapeutic treatments. It
provides special coverage of novel devices that allow new surgical
strategies, new methods of drug delivery, or possible reductions in the
complexity, cost or adverse results of health care. The Design Innovation
category features papers focusing on novel devices, including some with
limited clinical or engineering results. The Medical Device News section
provides coverage of advances, trends, and events.
New medical sensors/actuators, orthopaedic devices, cardiovascular
devices, rehabilitation devices, neurological devices, bioheat transfer
devices, medical instrumentation, image guided intervention/treatment,
endoscopic/laproscopic devices, minimally invasive devices, human
performance/force assessment, tissue engineered devices, drug/cell
delivery systems, medical robotics, medical device design processes,
medical device manufacturing, and human factors in medical devices.
