On liver modelling under trauma situations
Thoracic and abdominal organs are typically severely injured during crash situations leading to severe traumas with high morbidity. To prevent this, the definition of... -
Comparison of the biomechanical behaviour of the liver during frontal and lat...
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... -
Anthropometric characterization of spleen in children
Purpose This paper aims to characterize the 3D geometry of the child spleen which is still unknown. Methods An anthropological measurement protocol, based upon 3D... -
Reproductibility of geometrical acquisition of intra-thoracic organs of child...
This paper analyses geometry of intra-thoracic organs from computed tomography (CT) scans performed on 20 children aged from 4 months to 16 years. A set of two... -
On inverse analysis and robustness evaluation for biological structure behavi...
To prevent abdominal organs traumas, the definition of efficient safety devices should be based on a detailed knowledge of injury mechanisms and related injury... -

A strain-hardening bi-power law for the nonlinear behaviour of biological sof...
Biological soft tissues exhibit a strongly nonlinear viscoelastic behaviour. Among parenchymous tissues, kidney and liver remain less studied than brain, and a first...
