  2. 1. Physical Modeling of Brain and Head Kinematics

    Author : Johan Ivarsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; brain injury; skull base; rotational acceleration; physical models; lateral ventricles; head kinematics; padding materials; sulci; free motion headform; brain kinematics;

    Abstract : The development of head injury criteria and countermeasures for head protection requires understanding of how different factors affect brain and head kinematics. In this thesis, 2D physical models of the human head were developed and used to evaluate how various factors affect brain kinematics during angular head kinematics. READ MORE

  5. 3. The impact of tourniquet use in total knee arthroplasty

    Author : Charlotta Olivecrona; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Use of the tourniquet in extremity surgery is considered to be an important tool because it prevents intraoperative bleeding and thereby improves visualization of the surgical field. However, its use is not without risks, and complications may occur. READ MORE

  6. 4. Burial textiles : Textile bits and pieces in central Sweden, AD 500–800
