Optimization of muscle activation schemes in a finite element neck model simulating volunteer frontal impact scenarios
(Elsevier, 2020-03-07)Neck muscle activation is increasingly important for accurate prediction of occupant response in automotive impact scenarios and occupant excursion resulting from active safety systems such as autonomous emergency braking. ... -
Vestibulocollic and Cervicocollic Muscle Reflexes in a Finite Element Neck Model During Multidirectional Impacts
(Springer, 2021-05-03)Active neck musculature plays an important role in the response of the head and neck during impact and can affect the risk of injury. Finite element Human Body Models (HBM) have been proposed with open and closed-loop ...
