A parametric study of hard tissue injury prediction using finite elements: consideration of geometric complexity, sub-failure material properties, CT-thresholding, and element characteristics
Arregui-Dalmases, Carlos; Pozo de Dios, Eduardo del; Duprey, Sonia; López Valdés, Francisco José; Lau, Anthony; Subit, Damien; Kent, Richard W. (Sin editorial (Berna, Suiza), 17/09/2008)This study quantifies the sensitivity of finite element-predicted fracture in the clavicle to several parameters. Clavicles were harvested from 14 donors (age range 14-56 years). Quasistatic axxal compression tests were ... -
A parametric study of hard tissue injury prediction using finite elements: consideration of geometric complexity, subfailure material properties, CT-thresholding and element characteristics
Arregui-Dalmases, Carlos; Pozo de Dios, Eduardo del; Duprey, Sonia; López Valdés, Francisco José; Lau, Anthony; Subit, Damien; Kent, Richard W. (09/06/2010)Objective: The objectives of this study were to examine the axial response of the clavicle under quasistatic compressions replicating the body boundary conditions and to quantify the sensitivity of finite element predicted ... -
Pedestrian injuries in eight European countries: an analysis of hospital discharge data
Arregui-Dalmases, Carlos; López Valdés, Francisco José; Seguí Gómez, María (01/07/2010)Out of the 50,000 yearly road traffic deaths in the European Union (formed by 27 European countries and commonly designated as EU-27), some 8500 are pedestrians. While some studies focus on the increased risk for pedestrian ... -
Pressure waves in the aorta during isolated abdominal belt loading. The magnitude, phase and attenuation
Arregui-Dalmases, Carlos; Pozo de Dios, Eduardo del; Stacey, S.; Kindig, M.; Lessley, D.J.; López Valdés, Francisco José; Forman, Jason L.; Kent, Richard W. (01/07/2011)While rupture of the aorta is a leading cause of sudden death following motor vehicle crashes, the specific mechanism that causes this injury is not currently well understood. Aortic ruptures occurring in the field are ... -
The magnitude, phasing, and attenuation of pressure waves in the aorta during abdominal belt laoading
Arregui-Dalmases, Carlos; Pozo de Dios, Eduardo del; Kindig, Matthew; López Valdés, Francisco José; Forman, Jason L.; Kent, Richard W. (Sin editorial (York, Reino Unido), 09/09/2009)Rupture of the aorta is a leading cause of death after motor vehicle crashes, but the exact mechanisms of this injury remain unidentified. It is well documented that transient pressure waves develop within the aorta during ...
