Mathematical models are used to explain and study organ biomechanics of the abdominal viscera. Beginning with the fundamentals of thin shell theory, it leads to description of the function of abdominal organs. Finite deformations, effects of boundary conditions, electrodynamics dynamics, related medical conditions and effects of drugs are investigated.
