BIOMECHANICS

“… the application of the principles and techniques of mechanics to the structure, functions and capabilities of

living organisms.”

Webster’s New World Dictionary of the American Language Ed. David B. Guralnik. 2nd College Ed. New York: World Pub. Co., 1970

“…evaluation based on

mechanism (cause) of injury.

Such an approach relies on

knowledge of the typical

physical and psychological

sequelae associated with a

particular mechanism of injury

to guide patient assessment

and treatment.”

Scott S., H. Belanger, R. Vanderploeg, J. Massengale, J. Scholten “Mechanism-of-Injury Approach to Evaluating Patients With Blast-Related Polytrauma”,

Journal of American Osteopathic Association Vol. 106, No.5, May 2006 pp. 265-270

Injury Exceeds Juror Expectations

Some people get hurt in a collision and

others do not get hurt in the same collision.

?

Each collision for each individual has its own

unique set of parameters that

control the outcomeof the impact.

We must incorporate all the significant

parameters cumulatively in a case

specific analysis.

What Biomechanics Can Do in Your Case

1. Explain what happened in the accident

2. Connect the collision to the injuries

3. Determine whether or not the collision was sufficient to cause traumatic brain injury (probability over 50%)

4. Case specific probability of TBI (95%???)

5. Identify the risk factors

Mechanical Properties of Brain Tissue

• Incompressible (High resistance to change in size, high bulk modulus)

• Deformable (Low resistance to change in shape, low shear modulus)

• Heterogeneous (Different properties within the brain)

• Anisotropic (Different properties in different directions)

• Viscoelastic (Time dependent properties: magnitude, duration, rate of change)

Incompressible/Deformable

• Bulk modulus is approximately 105 (100,000) times larger than shear modulus.

• Deformation of brain tissue can be assumed to depend on shear modulus only.

• This behavior is common with viscoelasticmaterials (Shames and Cozzarelli, 1992)
