Incorporating Ligament Laxity in the Upper Cervical Spine for Finite Element Modeling
(Elsevier, 2017-06-30)Background Context: Predicting physiological range of motion (ROM) using a finite element (FE) model of the upper cervical spine requires the incorporation of ligament laxity. The effect of ligament laxity can only be ... -
Multi-scale modeling of head kinematics and brain tissue response to blast exposure
(Springer, 2019-09-15)Injuries resulting from blast exposure have been increasingly prevalent in recent conflicts, with a particular focus on the risk of head injury. In the current study, a multibody model (GEBOD) was used to investigate the ... -
A novel cohesive zone modelling approach to represent mixed mode loading and bond line thickness effects
(Taylor and Francis, 2023-02-28)Accurate representation of the traction-separation response for mixed mode loading in a cohesive zone model (CZM) is critical to predicting the response of adhesive joints in a number of applications, including transportation ...
