The regional dynamic mechanical properties of mouse, rat, pig, and human brain tissue
were compared directly in this first-of-its-kind study. Our results suggest the use of pig or …

Modeling and simulation of traumatic brain injury (TBI) resulted from collision or blast
loading requires characterization of mechanical response over a wide range of loading rates …

Traumatic brain injuries, the leading cause of death and disability in children and young
adults, are the result of a rapid acceleration or impact of the head. In recent years, a global …
