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.

Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) and suicidal: Criteria differentiation [PDF]

open access: goldAdvances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine, 2018
There are 2 types of basic self-destructive behavior: suicide and non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI). Currently, more and more researchers point out significant disorders which are NSSI behavior. This phenomenon is not new; NSSI seemingly has always been present in society, and certainly in approx. 10% of the population worldwide in recent times.

An investigation of tendon strains in jersey finger injury load cases using a finite element neuromuscular human body model

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Introduction: A common hand injury in American football, rugby and basketball is the so-called jersey finger injury (JFI), in which an eccentric overextension of the distal interphalangeal joint leads to an avulsion of the connected musculus flexor ...

Impact of Disabled Driver’s Mass Center Location on Biomechanical Parameters during Crash

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Adapting a car for a disable person involves adding additional equipment to compensate for the driver’s disability. During this process, the change in the driver’s position and kinematics and their impact on safety levels during crash is not considered ...
