RISThe Mechanics of Traumatic Brain Injury: A Review of What We Know and What We Need to Know for Reducing Its Societal Burden
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a significant public health problem, on pace to become the third leading cause of death worldwide by 2020. Moreover, emerging evidence linking repeated mild traumatic brain injury to longterm ...
Significant Head Accelerations Can Influence Immediate Neurological Impairments in a Murine Model of Blast Induced Traumatic Brain Injury
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Although blastinduced traumatic brain injury (bTBI) is well recognized for its significance in the military population, the unique mechanisms of primary bTBI remain undefined. Animate models of primary bTBI are critical ...
A Multibody Model for Predicting Spatial Distribution of Human Brain Deformation Following Impact Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: With an increasing focus on long-term consequences of concussive brain injuries, there is a new emphasis on developing tools that can accurately predict the mechanical response of the brain to impact loading. Although ...
