A New Understanding of the Mechanism of Injury to the Pelvis and Lower Limbs in Blast
Dismounted complex blast injury (DCBI) has been one of the most severe forms of trauma sustained in recent conflicts. This injury has been partially attributed to limb flail; however, the full causative mechanism has not yet been fully determined.

Human Injury Criteria for Underwater Blasts. [PDF]
Underwater blasts propagate further and injure more readily than equivalent air blasts. Development of effective personal protection and countermeasures, however, requires knowledge of the currently unknown human tolerance to underwater blast.

Understanding Low Back Pain in Traumatic Lower Limb Amputees: A Systematic Review
Objective: This systematic review aims to evaluate current literature for the prevalence, causes, and effect of low back pain (LBP) in traumatic lower limb amputees, specifically its association with the kinematics and kinetics of the lumbar spine and ...

Blast-Related Traumatic Brain Injury: Current Concepts and Research Considerations
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a well-known consequence of participation in activities such as military combat or collision sports. But the wide variability in eliciting circumstances and injury severities makes the study of TBI as a uniform disease ...

Computational study of human head response to primary blast waves of five levels from three directions. [PDF]
Human exposure to blast waves without any fragment impacts can still result in primary blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI). To investigate the mechanical response of human brain to primary blast waves and to identify the injury mechanisms of bTBI,

Advance of protection and mechanism of lung blast injury
With the frequent occurrences of global large-scale and local violent terrorist events, local conflicts, explosions of inflammable and explosive materials and coal mine gas explosion, and other accidents, the incidence of explosion impact injury is ...
