A finite rotation, small strain 2D elastic head model, with applications in mild traumatic brain injury
The essentials
- Traumatic brain injury often caused by rotational head motions
- Need to develop methods for predicting brain tissue strains and strain rates resulting from such motions
- Idealized continuum mechanics based head models provide a promising approach for estimating brain strains and strain rates quickly and efficiently
- Previous models limited by assumptions of small rotations that do not accurately reflect real-world scenarios
- New idealized continuum mechanics based head model developed that accounts for the head's finite rotation
- 2D elastic finite rotation head model predicts comparable strains to more detailed finite element head models despite its simplicity, demonstrating its potential usefulness in rapidly estimating brain injury risk.
- Proposed model has significant implications for guiding the design of protective equipment and improving our understanding of mild traumatic brain injury.
- Can serve as a basis for introducing finite rotations into more sophisticated head models in the future, ultimately leading to better predictions of brain tissue strains and strain rates resulting from rotational head motions.
- Represents an important step forward in developing accurate and efficient methods for assessing brain injury risk.
