The creation of three-dimensional finite element models for simulating head impact biomechanics

TL;DR: It is concluded that careful modelling of the CSF and skull thickness is necessary if the correct intracranial pressure distribution is to be predicted, and so further forms of validation are required to improve the finite element models' injury prediction capabilities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of a finite element human head model partially validated with thirty five experimental cases.

TL;DR: Studies from 35 loading cases demonstrated that the FE head model could predict head responses which were comparable to experimental measurements in terms of pattern, peak values, or time histories.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of Brain Responses Between Frontal and Lateral Impacts by Finite Element Modeling

TL;DR: Results of the simulation suggest that skull deformation and internal partitions may be responsible for the directional sensitivity of the head in terms of intracranial pressure and shear stress response, and that the head would tend to have a decreased tolerance to shear deformation in lateral impact.
Journal ArticleDOI

A computational model for tracking subsurface tissue deformation during stereotactic neurosurgery

TL;DR: The authors report on the initial development of a finite element model of brain tissue adapted from consolidation theory that could be used in conjunction with a limited amount of concurrently obtained operative data to estimate subsurface tissue motion.

Stability and accuracy analysis of direct integration methods

TL;DR: In this article, a systematic procedure for the stability and accuracy analysis of direct integration methods in structural dynamics is presented, and the specific methods studied are the Newmark generalized acceleration scheme, the Houbolt method and the Wilson θ-method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Whiplash injury and brain damage: an experimental study

TL;DR: Experimental whiplash injury in rhesus monkeys has demonstrated that experimental cerebral concussion, as well as gross hemorrhages and contusions over the surface of the brain and upper cervical cord, can be produced by rotational displacement of the head on the neck alone, without significant direct head impact.

The Lucite Calvarium—A Method for Direct Observation of the Brain: II. Cranial Trauma and Brain Movement

TL;DR: The patterns of brain motion resulting from blows to both the freely movable and the immobile head were recorded by high-speed cinematography.
