Les travaux présentés dans cette thèse constituent une étude des mouvements collectifs des cellules épithéliales lors de la cicatrisation grâce à une méthode de...

The goal of this paper is to study the influence of placenta position on the risk of placenta abruption following a car crash involving a full term pregnant woman in...

International audience

Thoracic and abdominal organs are typically severely injured during crash situations leading to severe traumas with high morbidity. To prevent this, the definition of...

Computational models are developed in injury biomechanics to assess lesions in biological tissues based on mechanical measurements. The linear mechanics of fracture...

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the possibility of using a numerical model of a pregnant woman to understand placenta injury mechanisms in car accident...

In pedestrian, cyclist and motorcyclist accidents, cervical spine injuries are often observed, with complex mechanisms occurring for multidirectional loadings. In this...

Head trauma, reported in sport injury and road accident analysis, frequently induce complex injury of Petrous bone. Such bone fractures are assumed to occur during...

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...

A study sponsored by National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in 1981 showed that the most deadly injuries to the accident victims were injuries of the...

BACKGROUND: There are a few studies assessing repercussions in road accident victims, which reported their results in quality of life (QoL), on an epidemiologic point...

Previous research has shown that there are inequalities with regard to traffic accident risk between different social categories. This study describes the influence of...

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...

Adolescent males involved in motorcycle accidents are particularly at risk for pelvic injury, which may provoke a posterior urethral injury. The aim of this study was...

Purpose: In France, the bicycle’s modal share is stabilizing after a decline; in some of France’s major cities, it has even increased since the 1990s. It is hence...

In addition to the immediate physical injuries they suffer, road accident victims may also be subject to ongoing deterioration of their state of health in terms of...

The objective of this study was to assess the influence of longitudinal barriers located on the medianstrips and hard shoulders of toll motorways on crash severity in...

The aim of this thesis is to measure the influence of individual and contextual socioeconomic factors in daily travel, traffic injury incidences and severity of...

In car–pedestrian accidents, lateral bending and shearing kinematics have been identified as principal injury mechanisms causing permanent disabilities and impairments...

The percentage of trauma during pregnancy related to road accident is between 50% and 75%. This type of trauma can result in premature birth or even foetal loss. To...
