The Finite Element Model

Abstract The objective of this study is to develop a finite element model of the human thorax with a protective body armor system so that the model can adequately determine the thorax’s biodynamical response from a projectile impact. The finite element model of the human thorax consists of the thoracic skeleton, heart, lungs, major arteries, major veins, trachea, and bronchi. The finite element model of the human thorax is validated by comparing the model’s results to experimental data obtained from cadavers wearing a protective body armor system undergoing a projectile impact.

Thorax injuries are common in vehicular accidents, second only to head injuries. Unbelted drivers of vehicles are more likely to suffer thorax injuries from steering wheel contact in frontal impacts. The objective of this study is to investigate the effects the steering wheel tilt angle (0, 20, 40, and 60) impact to the thorax of human body model with respect to thorax deflection and steering wheel rim contact interaction. To understanding of the human thorax sensitivity to steering wheel tilt angle on the force and deflection response using finite element simulations. It was found that the thorax response is sensitive to changes in steering wheel tilt angle. The contact force, Sternal displacement were the key parameters to be observed and compared. The results show that the contact force increased when the steering wheel tilt angle was bigger, the response was quicker. Low steering wheel tilt resulted in greater deformation. The greater the contact force, the deformation of the sternum but reduced when thorax impact the steering wheel, According to ECE R12 steering wheel regulation ,use force regulations to assessment the injury of the thorax is not accurate enough when human thorax impact the steering wheel.

AbstractX-ray dark-field imaging is a widely researched imaging technique, with many studies on samples of very different dimensions and at very different resolutions. However, retrieval of three-dimensional (3D) information for human thorax sized objects has not yet been demonstrated. We present a method, similar to classic tomography and tomosynthesis, to obtain 3D information in X-ray dark-field imaging. Here, the sample is moved through the divergent beam of a Talbot–Lau interferometer. Projections of features at different distances from the source seemingly move with different velocities over the detector, due to the cone beam geometry. The reconstruction of different focal planes exploits this effect. We imaged a chest phantom and were able to locate different features in the sample (e.g. the ribs, and two sample vials filled with water and air and placed in the phantom) to corresponding focal planes. Furthermore, we found that image quality and detectability of features is sufficient for image reconstruction with a dose of 68 μSv at an effective pixel size of $$0.357 \times {0.357}\,\mathrm{mm}^{2}$$ 0.357 × 0.357 mm 2 . Therefore, we successfully demonstrated that the presented method is able to retrieve 3D information in X-ray dark-field imaging.
