  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. 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

  4. 3. 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

  5. 4. Fibre-to-Board - Validation of the Simulation Model and Development of Laboratory Methods to Receive Input Data

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, Fakulteten för teknik- och naturvetenskap

    Författare :Charlotta Boström; Anna Rosén; [2006]
    Nyckelord :shrinkage; free drying; restrained drying; Fibre-to-Board; hand sheet properties; fine material; tensile stiffness; simulation;

    Sammanfattning : Fibre-to-board is a simulation model developed at Stora Enso Research Centre Karlstad. Within this model isotropic hand sheet properties are used as input data for prediction of the final multi ply board properties. LÄS MER
