  2. 6. An Average Female Head-Neck Finite Element Model with Reflexive Neck Muscles

    Author : I Putu Alit Putra; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Finite Element; Human Body Model; Whiplash Injury; Active Neck Muscle;

    Abstract : Several factors potentially contribute to the risk of whiplash injuries; one of them is the neck muscle activities. Muscle activities in the neck have been shown to influence the head-neck kinematics during whiplash-like rear impacts. READ MORE

  5. 8. Modelling the viscoplastic properties of carbon black filled rubber : A finite strain material model suitable for Finite Element Analysis

    Author : Rickard Österlöf; Leif Kari; Alan Muhr; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; reinforcing fillers; rubber; finite strain; viscoplastic; förstärkande fyllmedel; gummi; finita töjningar; viskoplastisk; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : An increased environmental awareness, legal demands and the large part of total costs attributable to fuel cost are all incentives for the automotive industry to reduce fuel consumption. The optimal driveline to enable this reduction depends on the operational conditions and the available infrastructure. READ MORE

  6. 9. Simulation of contact, friction and wear in gears : a finite element approach

    Author : Olle Lundvall; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Gears; Gear noise; Contact mechanics; Simulation; Friction; Wear; Transmission error;

    Abstract : In this thesis, resent methods in computational contact mechanics is brought into the process of gear design. The finite element method is used to model two elastic bodies in contact. By defining a contact interface between these two bodies, constitutive laws, regarding normal contact, friction and wear, are included. READ MORE

  7. 10. Thoracic injuries in frontal car crashes: risk assessment using a finite element human body model

    Author : Manuel Mendoza-Vazquez; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; finite element; Thoracic injury criteria; rib fracture; human body model; real-world crash data; survival analysis;

    Abstract : Accident data show that there is a clear need to improve the protection to occupants’ thorax in frontal car crashes. For this purpose, models that can predict the risk of injuries and assess the occupant protection offered by different restraint systems are needed. READ MORE
