The Effect of Three-Dimensional Whole, Major, and Small Vasculature on Mouse Brain Strain Under Both Diffuse and Focal Brain Injury Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Blood vessels are much stiffer than brain parenchyma and their effects in finite element (FE) brain models need to be investigated. Despite the publication of some comprehensive three-dimensional (3D) brain vasculature ...
Material Properties of Rat Middle Cerebral Arteries at High Strain Rates
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Traumatic brain injury (TBI), resulting from either impact- or nonimpact blast-related mechanisms, is a devastating cause of death and disability. The cerebral blood vessels, which provide critical support for brain tissue ...
A Strain Rate-Dependent Constitutive Model for Göttingen Minipig Cerebral Arteries
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Computational simulations of traumatic brain injury (TBI) are commonly used to advance understanding of the injury–pathology relationship, tissue damage thresholds, and design of protective equipment such as helmets. Both ...
Rate- and Region-Dependent Mechanical Properties of Göttingen Minipig Brain Tissue in Simple Shear and Unconfined Compression
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Traumatic brain injury (TBI), particularly from explosive blasts, is a major cause of casualties in modern military conflicts. Computational models are an important tool in understanding the underlying biomechanics of TBI ...
