  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. Arm Injury Prediction with THUMS SAFER: Improvements of the THUMS SAFER upper extremity

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära; KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

    Author : Mariam Bayat; Nichakarn Pongpairote; [2020]
    Keywords : Biomechanics; upper extremity; arm; validation; Total HUman Model for Saftey THUMS ; Finite Element Modelling FEM ; Biomekanik; övre extremitet; arm; validering; Total HUman Model for Saftey THUMS ; Finite Element Modellering FEM ;

    Abstract : Globally, approximately 1.2 million people die each year due to traffic accidents. Upper extremity injuries account for 18% to 25% of all car accident injuries. In order to be able to analyze these crash-related injuries, Human body models(HBMs) are used as a complement to FE simulations. READ MORE

  4. 3. Evaluation of Thoracic Injury Risk of Heavy Goods Vehicle Occupants during Steering Wheel Rim Impacts to Different Rib Levels

    University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Author : Jia Cheng Xu; [2019]
    Keywords : Heavy Goods Vehicles HGVs ; Rim Impacts; Human Body Models HBM ; Total HUman Model for Safety THUMS ; Hybrid III; ribs; aorta; liver; spleen; injury risk functions; material models; cumulative distribution function CDF ; Ogden; risk curves; Lastbilar; rattislag; humanmodeller; Total HUman Model for Safety THUMS ; Hybrid III; revben; aorta; lever; mjälte; riskfunktioner; materialmodeller; kumulativ fördelningsfunktion; Ogden; riskkurvor;

    Abstract : The interior of heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) differs from passenger cars. Both the steering wheel and the occupant are positioned differently in a HGV and increases the risk of steering wheel rim impacts. READ MORE

  5. 4. Concussions in Ice Hockey : Accident Reconstructions Using Finite Element Simulations

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

    Author : Ekant Mishra; [2019]
    Keywords : Concussion; Ice hockey helmet; Accident reconstruction; FE; HBMs;

    Abstract : Ice hockey, one of the most popular sports in the world, is a contact sport that is always associated with huge risks of traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) resulting from high-velocity impacts. Although technology in player protection equipment has advanced over the years, mild traumatic brain injuries (mTBIs) like concussion remain prevalent. READ MORE
