The Contribution of Accident Investigation Research to Biomechanics

Mackay, Murray

Pages: 3 –16

[The evolution of accident investigation procedures is traced from early railway accidents, through the work by De Haven on light aircraft accidents to the first in depth studies of road crashes. Individual multi-disciplinary teams addressed many biomechanical issues in the 1960s and 70s, leading...

Modeling the Effects of Blast on the Human Thorax Using High Strain Rate Viscoelastic Properties of Human Tissue

Ward, Emily E.; Kleinberger, Michael; Lennon, Andrew M.; Roberts, Jack C.

Pages: 17 –24

[An anatomically detailed finite element model (FEM) of the male human torso has been generated using geometry obtained from a model of the human anatomy developed for the computer graphics industry. The model represents a 5th percentile male human based on anthropometric data from the US Army....

Preliminary Analysis of Blunt Ballistic Impacts to the Abdomen

Bir, Cynthia; Eck, Jerome

Pages: 25 –32

[Law enforcement agencies, as well as military personnel, are relying on nonlethal technology to diffuse potentially life-threatening situations without the use of lethal force. However, a standardized method for testing the health effects of these non-lethal devices has not been established. In...

Development of an Assessment Methodology for Lower Leg Injuries Resulting from Anti-Vehicular Blast Landmines

Manseau, J.; Keown, M.

Pages: 33 –40

[Data were generated to assist development of an injury assessment methodology for risk evaluation of lower leg injuries caused by anti-vehicular blast landmines. An instrumented Hybrid III lower leg and frangible DRDC Complex Lower Leg (CLL) were each subjected to dynamic axial impacts at...

Occupant Lower Leg Injury Assessment in Landmine Detonations under a Vehicle

van der Horst, M.J.; Simms, C.K.; van Maasdam, R.; Leerdam, P.J.C.

Pages: 41 –49

[Occupant safety has a high priority in peacekeeping military operations. During an anti tank (AT) mine detonation under a vehicle, the global and local impulse load threaten occupant safety. The proximity of the occupant's feet to the vehicle floor (through direct contact, or via pedals/foot...

The Simulated Response of Cortical and Cancellous Bone to Various Rates of Loading — A Preliminary Numerical Study

Oerder, S.A.; Nurick, G.N.

Pages: 51 –58

[The simulated responses of cortical and cancellous bone subjected to two different loading conditions are presented. These are impact type and blast type pressure loads. Three different models are simulated under the two loading conditions; they are a hollow cortical bone, a solid cancellous...

Multibody Dynamics Approaches for Biomechanical Modeling in Human Impact Applications

Ambrósio, Jorge; Silva, Miguel

Pages: 61 –80

[The construction of multibody biomechanical models for impact is discussed here with the emphasis on the formulation aspects. First the relations between the human or the dummy anthropometric data and the rigid bodies in the model are presented. The motion restrictions between the different...

Reconstructing Real Life Accidents Towards Establishing Criteria for Traumatic Head Impact Injuries

Doorly, M.C.; Phillips, J.P.; Gilchrist, M.D.

Pages: 81 –90

[Brain injury is the leading cause of death in those aged under 45 years in both Europe and the United States. The objective of this research is to reconstruct and analyse real world cases of accidental head injury, thereby providing accurate data which can be used subsequently to develop...

Combined Multi-Body Dynamic and FE Models of Human Head and Neck

Esat, Volkan; van Lopik, David W.; Acar, Memis

Pages: 91 –100

[A complete three-dimensional multi-body dynamic computational model of the human head and neck has been developed and validated using human volunteer experimental data. The complete head-neck model has been used to simulate 15g frontal and 8.5g rear-end impacts with the resulting motion compared...

Three Years Old Child Neck Finite Element Modelisation

Dupuis, Raphaël; Meyer, Frank; Willinger, Rémy

Pages: 101 –109

[Despite of recent progresses in occupant safety, the protection of children is still not optimal. To offer a better comprehension of child injury mechanisms, we developed a human-like finite element of a three years old child's neck. The subject was scanned with a medical scanner. The images...
