Introduction to Impact Biomechanics and Human Body Models

课程介绍

To prevent human injury in traffic it is necessary to understand the biomechanics of impact. This can be done through experimental studies with human subjects, volunteers, or post-mortem human subjects (PMHS), after ethical approval. The individual variation is large in experiments with human subjects, due to the wide spread of anthropometry and material properties that depend on factors such as gender, age, and health status. Mechanical anthropometric crash test dummies were developed to provide repetitive tools for development and assessment of safety systems for specific loading scenarios, representing mid-size males, large males, small females and children of different ages. With the development of advanced safety systems, the need for repetitive tools with increased biofidelity and anatomical details, initiated development of numerical human body models. With increasing computer capacity, human body models have become popular tools for traffic safety research, crash simulations, safety evaluations and to study the effects of population diversity on traffic safety. This course covers the basic topics of impact biomechanics, such as human anatomy, population variance, mechanical properties of human tissues, and injury criteria. Finally, it focuses on computational models of the human body and their use to develop and evaluate safety systems.

谁该参加?

This seminar addresses everyone who wants to obtain an up-to-date overview or who needs a deepened understanding of the field of impact biomechanics, such as university graduates, career changers, management, project assistants, internal service providers, qualified technicians from the crash-test lab or anyone basing product development or decision-making on simulation results with human body models.

课程目标

The objective of this course is to introduce impact biomechanics, injury biomechanics, and to provide an overview of computational models of the human body. You will learn about the most important topics and get a chance to understand how it relates to your work and traffic safety in general.
