Electro-mechanical response of a 3D nerve bundle model to mechanical loads leading to axonal injury [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, 34 (2018) e2942, 2020
Objective: Traumatic brain injuries and damage are major causes of death and disability. We propose a 3D fully coupled electro-mechanical model of a nerve bundle to investigate the electrophysiological impairments due to trauma at the cellular level. Methods: The coupling is based on a thermal analogy of the neural electrical activity by using the ...

Head-to-nerve analysis of electromechanical impairments of diffuse axonal injury [PDF]

open access: yesBiomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology volume 18, pages 361-374(2019), 2020
The aim was to investigate mechanical and functional failure of diffuse axonal injury (DAI) in nerve bundles following frontal head impacts, by finite element simulations. Anatomical changes following traumatic brain injury are simulated at the macroscale by using a 3D head model.
