课程提纲🚣🏼：
Abstracts: In the field of biomechanics, there is a strong need of in vivo characterization and modelling of biological tissues and structures for both biomedical and impact biomechanics applications.
Therefore main research activities concern human tissue and structures identification both in vivo and in vitro. The methods currently used are dynamic mechanical analysis, static and dynamic indentation, modal analysis, transient ultra sound methods and Magnetic Resonance Elastography. Current living organs under study are brain, liver and spleen and main biological structures of interest are head, neck and torso. Both advanced human imaging technics and animal models are considered for the structural and mechanical investigation of tissue.
At modelling level advanced hyper-visco elastic isotropic and anisotropic constitutive laws are identified and implemented in finite element models of human segments. Models are validated and applied under physiological and extreme mechanical loading conditions.
Original human head and neck finite element models of adults and children have been developed and extensively used for real world head-neck trauma simulation in conjunction with worldwide partners. New head-neck tolerance limits have been defined for skull fracture, subdural haematoma, and neurological injuries as well as whiplash injuries.
The human body segment models are then coupled to protective systems in order to evaluate and to optimise them against improved biomechanics based injury criteria. Further applications of these models are also developed in the field of legal medicine mainly for the investigation of the shaken baby syndrome.
Keywords:
Biological tissue characterization, soft tissue constitutive laws, Magnetic Resonance Elastography, finite element models of the head-neck system, impact biomechanics, head and neck injury criteria, head protection systems.
