Accurate material properties of the brain and skull are needed to examine the biomechanics
of head injury during highly dynamic loads such as blunt impact or blast. In this paper, a …

Knowing the precise material properties of intracranial head organs is crucial for studying
the biomechanics of head injury. It has been shown that these biological tissues are …

In almost all scenarios of traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), the brain tissue goes under
mechanical loading at high strain rates. In experimental works, it has also shown that brain …

An idealized finite element human head model was constructed to study biomechanical
responses in the brain due to blast overpressure loading from a blast of 10 kg TNT at 1 …

Blunt impacts contribute more than 95% of brain trauma injuries in Malaysia. Modelling and
simulation of these impacts are essential in understanding the mechanics of the injuries to …

In this thesis, an integrated and mechanized finite element (FE) model is developed for
predicting a human brain's primary blast injury (PBI) and for assisting in the design of …

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) often happens due to assaulting loads such as blast on the
human head. Finite elements (FEs) can approximately simulate the blast interactions with …

Primary blast wave impact on military personnel is of major concern, particularly as it relates
to traumatic brain injury. To gain insights into the brain's response to primary blast impact …

Blast traumatic brain injury (bTBI) may happen due to sudden blast and high-frequency
loads. Due to the moral issues and the burden of experimental approaches, using …

The intrinsic complexity of the human head and brain lies within the non-uniformity of their
constitutive components in terms of shape, material, function, and tolerance. Due to this …
