Description for Iutam Symposium on Impact Biomechanics
Hardback. Contains the edited papers of the IUTAM Symposium on the Biomechanics of Impact, which was held in University College Dublin, Ireland in July 2005. These papers can be grouped into those that are concerned with the different causes of accidents, and the mechanics involved in accident analysis. This work is useful for researchers. Editor(s): Gilchrist, M.D. Series: Solid Mechanics and its Applications. Num Pages: 504 pages, biography. BIC Classification: TGMD. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 28. Weight in Grams: 885.
Substantialfundamental workhas been undertaken inthe different aspects of impact biomechanics over the past three decades. Much of this has been motivated and undertaken bythe automotive industry intheirefforts to improve transport safety. More recently, however, it has become app- ent that themultidisciplinary synergies which are realisedby interactions between engineers, scientists and clinical practitioners will ultimately lead to a greater understanding of the complex interacting phenomena withinthe human bodyafter it has sustained an impact. In turn, this greater depth of knowledge will provide more fundamentalinsights into the analysis, d- gnosis, treatment and prevention ofimpact injuries across a broader sp- trum of accident ...

Reviews for Iutam Symposium on Impact Biomechanics
From the reviews of the first edition: "The study of biomechanics of impact suffered by the human body during accidents has proved worthwhile in recent years. This volume contains about 50 papers which … cover a wide range of topics centrally important for such a study. … Simulations reconstructing the accidents with the knowledge of ... Read more
