  1. 1. Test Equipment for the LUCAS Chest Compression System: Incorporating Biomechanical Insights for Future Design Enhancements

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Författare :Ester Pörtfors; Malin Svärdling; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Mechanical CPR; Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation; LUCAS Chest Compression System; Test Equipment; Chest Biomechanics; Chest Stiffness; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : The LUCAS Chest Compression System is a market leading mechanical cardiopulmonary resuscitation device, assisting medical professionals worldwide when treating patients with sudden cardiac arrest. The objective of this master thesis project was to develop a new, adjustable test equipment for the LUCAS device, allowing for tests on varying chest heights and stiffness levels. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Evaluation of Thoracic Injury Risk of Heavy Goods Vehicle Occupants during Steering Wheel Rim Impacts to Different Rib Levels

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Författare :Jia Cheng Xu; [2019]
    Nyckelord :Heavy Goods Vehicles HGVs ; Rim Impacts; Human Body Models HBM ; Total HUman Model for Safety THUMS ; Hybrid III; ribs; aorta; liver; spleen; injury risk functions; material models; cumulative distribution function CDF ; Ogden; risk curves; Lastbilar; rattislag; humanmodeller; Total HUman Model for Safety THUMS ; Hybrid III; revben; aorta; lever; mjälte; riskfunktioner; materialmodeller; kumulativ fördelningsfunktion; Ogden; riskkurvor;

    Sammanfattning : The interior of heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) differs from passenger cars. Both the steering wheel and the occupant are positioned differently in a HGV and increases the risk of steering wheel rim impacts. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Age–Related Perspectives on the Biomechanics of Traumatic Injury

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för teknik och hälsa (STH)

    Författare :Silvia Pezzutti; [2017]
    Nyckelord :FE Model; Pediatric; Age; Injuries;

    Sammanfattning : Finite element models have the potential to accurately represent the pediatric body, both from the anatomical and topological point of view. They can describe changes in size and shape as well as changes in the biomechanical properties. LÄS MER
