Head impacts leading to traumatic brain injury (TBI) present a major health risk today,
projected to become the third leading cause of death by 2020. While finite element (FE) …

ABSTRACT Primary Objective: Closed brain injuries are a common danger in contact sports
and motorized vehicular collisions. Mild closed brain injuries, such as concussions, are not …

The human head is a highly complex structure, with a combination of hard and soft tissues
and a variety of materials and interactions. Many researchers have used computational …

Primary Objective: The interaction of cerebrospinal fluid with the brain parenchyma in an
impact scenario is studied. Research Design: A computational fluid-structure interaction …

We review different aspects of how different fluids move and influence the human brain. The
brain is comprised 77% of water, which flows between and resides within cells. After …

Abstract The Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) can undergo shear deformations under head
motions. Finite Element (FE) models, which are commonly used to simulate biomechanics of …

The brain can be severely injured even without the skull being fractured by the impact to the
head. For example, when the head is stationary and struck by a moving object the brain …

Abusive head trauma is the leading cause of fatal brain injuries in children younger than 2
years. It is a preventable and severe form of physical child abuse often linked to the forceful …

The aim of this study is to explain the higher incidence of subdural haematomas in elderly
people compared to young adult. This research addresses the phenomenon by developing …

A magnetic resonance imaging-based finite-element model is employed to assess the
temperature in the human brain due to blunt head trauma. The model is based on a coupled …
