  1. 1. A New Approach for Positioning Human Body Models Utilising the 3D-Graphics Program Blender

    University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Author : Jesper Eiderbäck; Felix Jahnke; [2023]
    Keywords : Human Body Model; HBM; positioning; THUMS; Blender; Radial basis function.; Mänsklig kroppsmodel; HBM; positionering; THUMS; Blender; Radiell Basfunktion;

    Abstract : A finite element human body model (FE HBM) is a detailed virtual model of the human body that, for example, is used for simulating traffic accidents. A problem with HBMs is that there is no simple way to position the HBMs in non-standard positions. READ MORE

  3. 2. Mozambican farmers perceived health in the context of climate change : A qualitative study

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för hälsovetenskaper

    Author : Agnes Taripanah; [2023]
    Keywords : Public health; climate change; Mozambique; agriculture; health belief model; theory of justice; Folkhälsovetenskap; klimatförändringar; Moçambique; jordbruk; health belief model; theory of justice;

    Abstract : Introduction: Mozambican farmers constitute a vulnerable group, facing challenges in relation to climate change that put their health at risk. This issue received limited attention in privious research, resulting in a knowledge gap regarding a local perspective of Mozambican farmers’ health in the contex of climate change. READ MORE

  4. 3. Applicability of Graph Neural Networks to predict Human variability in Human Body Model Rib Strain Predictions

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistik, AI och data science

    Author : Julia Solhed; [2022]
    Keywords : Graph Neural Networks; Human Body Model; SAFER HBM; HBM simulation; Rib strain predictions; Rib fracture risk predictions;

    Abstract : Finite element human body models have in recent years become widely used in the area of vehicle safety evaluations. They make it possible to predict injury risk in specific areas, down to the organ level in the human body. An existing human body model, SAFER HBM includes a rib cage representing an average male.

  5. 4. Analysis of the Potential of Different Foam Materials in Face Protection to Reduce the Risk of Concussions in Ice Hockey

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Annika Neumann; [2021]
    Keywords : Ice Hockey Jaw Protection; FEM; Concussion; Foam;

    Abstract :  Ice hockey players are at a high risk to sustain a concussion. Most of the concussion-inducing hits are to the jaw region, nevertheless, most players do not wear any protective gear shielding the jaw. READ MORE

  6. 5. Rear end crash simulation using Human Body Models : An investigation of the design of seat structure using a 50th percentile female Human Body Model

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Jacob Fagerström; [2020]
    Keywords : Human body model; Car crash; Finite element method;

    Abstract : In this master thesis it have been investigated how the stiffness of a seat affect the risk of neck injuries, e.g whiplash associated disorders, in a rear end low velocity car collision using a female human body model, HBM, and if dividing the seat into several sections with different stiffnesses.
