Consequences of the dynamic triple peak impact factor in traumatic brain injury as measured with numerical simulation

There is a lack of knowledge about the direct neuromechanical consequences in traumatic brain injury (TBI) at the scene of accident. In this study we use a finite element model of the human head to study the dynamic response of the brain during the first milliseconds after the impact with velocities...
