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 …

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are caused by incidents such as motor vehicle crashes, falls,
and sports activities are a major cause of death. The kinematical (accelerations) and tissue …

The human head is identified as the body region most frequently involved in life-threatening
injuries. Extensive research based on experimental, analytical and numerical methods has …

Animal and anatomic research has shown that head impact direction is an influential
parameter in the risk of traumatic brain injury (TBI). In this field, however, not much research …

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 …

The objective of the present study was to analyze the effect of different load directions and
durations following impact using a finite element (FE) model of the human head. A detailed …

Mechanical response of the human head under a side car crash impact is crucial for
modeling traumatic brain injuries (TBI) or concussions. The current advances in …

Brain damage by the impact force was evaluated by the numerical analysis with a three
dimensional Finite Element (FE) model. The FE model was constructed from the MRI data of …

The objective of the present study was to evaluate whether variation of human head size
results in different outcome regarding intracranial responses following a direct impact. Finite …

In this study, we investigate the effects of modelling choices for the brain–skull interface
(layers of tissues between the brain and skull that determine boundary conditions for the …
