A Comparative Study of Continuum and Structural Modelling Approaches to Simulate Bone Adaptation in the Pelvic Construct

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
This study presents the development of a number of finite element (FE) models of the pelvis using different continuum and structural modelling approaches.

Rapid release of tissue enzymes into blood after blast exposure: potential use as biological dosimeters. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Explosive blast results in multiple organ injury and polytrauma, the intensity of which varies with the nature of the exposure, orientation, environment and individual resilience.

Blast Injury [PDF]

open access: yesMilitary Medicine, 2011
Explosions can cause devastating injuries by various wounding mechanisms. Injuries due to the primary pressure wave are rarely life threatening and those that are lethal are uncommon. We reviewed the pathophysiology of blast-related injuries and their implications for management.

Mediastinal injury is the strongest predictor of mortality in mounted blast amongst UK deployed forces. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: Blast injury has been the most common cause of morbidity and mortality encountered by UK forces during recent conflicts. Injuries sustained by blast are categorised by the injuring component of the explosion and depend upon physical ...

Human Injury Criteria for Underwater Blasts. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
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.

A New Understanding of the Mechanism of Injury to the Pelvis and Lower Limbs in Blast

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
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.

Understanding Low Back Pain in Traumatic Lower Limb Amputees: A Systematic Review

open access: yesArchives of Rehabilitation Research and Clinical Translation, 2019
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 ...

Advance of protection and mechanism of lung blast injury

open access: yesDi-san junyi daxue xuebao, 2022
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 ...

The generation and function of microvesicles in blast injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Blast is the most common mechanism of injury in combat casualties and these patients are more likely to develop multiorgan failure and coagulopathy and die than those injured by penetrating mechanisms.

Blast-Related Traumatic Brain Injury: Current Concepts and Research Considerations

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Neuroscience, 2019
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 ...
