  1. 1. Development of a subject specific 3D knee finite element model to estimate the effect of weight loss on cartilage biomechanics

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Författare :Julius Dahlgren; [2022]
    Nyckelord :biomechanics; knee; cartilage; subject-specific; finite element; FE; FEM; weight loss; osteoarthritis; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common musculoskeletal disorder that degrades articular cartilage and is a leading cause of disability worldwide. Overweight has been considered a major risk factor of knee OA, and it is known that weight loss may reduce the risk of knee OA. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Analysis of Head Kinematics in Ice Hockey

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Författare :David Pogosian; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Ice hockey; Video analysis; MPS; THUMS; Concussion; Head kinematics; Finite Element analysis; Ishockey; Videoanalys; MPS; THUMS; Hjärnskakning; Huvudkinematik; Finita element metoden;

    Sammanfattning : Ice hockey has been identified as a sport with a high risk for concussions due to it being highly physical. Improvements have been made over the years to improve the protective gear for the players effectively eliminating more severe traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) however mild concussions (mTBI) are still prevalent to this day.

  4. 3. Studying American Football with Finite Element Analysis and Video Analysis

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Författare :Daniel Sliwinski; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Medical Engineering; Helmet to Helmet impacts; Helmet to Ground impacts; Finite Element Analysis; Video Analysis; GHBMC; Maximum Principal Strain; American Football; Medicinsk teknik; Hjälm mot hjälm tackling; Hjälm mot mark tackling; Videoanalys; Finite Element analys; GHBMC; Maximum Principal Strain; Amerikansk fotboll;

    Sammanfattning : Head injuries in American football is a serious issue regarding player health which is highly affected by velocity and its direction. Impact location can affect the severity of the head injury in both helmet-to-helmet impacts and helmet-to-ground impacts hence the understanding of concussive outcome from velocities and impact locations must be improved.

  5. 4. Finite Element Modeling of Chest Compressions in CPR

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Medicinsk teknik

    Författare :Hildigunnur Katrínardóttir; [2017]
    Nyckelord :Finite element modeling; Cardiopulmonary resuscitation; Chest compressions; Rib and sternal injury;

    Sammanfattning : Factors affecting the risk of ribcage injury in adult subjects during CPR were investigated using the torso region of the THUMS model, a full human body FE-model, representing an average adult male. The thoracic dynamic response of the model was compared to experimental PMHS hub loading impact data and live-subject CPR data found in the literature. LÄS MER
