Sudden deceleration and frontal/rear impact configurations involve rapid movements that
can cause spinal injuries. This study aimed to investigate the rotation rate effect on the L2–L3 …

Background: The trunk of a car occupant can be injured by a frontal or lateral impact. Lesions
can be either intrusion injuries or due to the effects of deceleration alone. The aim of this …

Study Design: Detailed biomechanical analysis of the anchorage performance provided by
different pedicle screw designs and placement strategies under pullout loading. Objective: To …

Despite an increase in the number of experimental and numerical studies dedicated to
spinal trauma, the influence of the rate of loading or displacement on lumbar spine injuries …

The Lower Limb Model for Safety (LLMS) is a finite element model of the lower limb
developed mainly for safety applications. It is based on a detailed description of the lower limb …

<p>In order to investigate injury mechanisms, and to provide directions for road safety system
improvements, the HUMOS project has lead to the development of a 3D finite element …

Study Design. Measurements of cervical and thoracolumbar human spinal cord (SC)
geometry based on in vivo magnetic resonance imaging and investigation of morphological “…

Objective Head injuries are common injuries in E-scooter accidents which have dramatically
increased in recent years. The head impact conditions and helmet performance during E-…

In the field of numerical crash simulations in road safety research, there is a need to accurately
define the initial conditions of a frontal impact for the car occupant. In particular, human …

Background Sacroiliac joint (SIJ) is a known chronic pain-generator. The last resort of treatment
is the arthrodesis. Different implants allow fixation of the joint, but to date there is no tool …
