6. Position-matching and goal-directed reaching acuity of the upper limb in chronic neck pain : associations to self-rated characteristics
Sammanfattning : Neck-shoulder pain is common in the general population and causes individual suffering as well as large costs for the society. Despite substantial efforts, there is still a shortage of methods for objective diagnosis and effective rehabilitation of such disorders. Thus, there is a great need to develop and evaluate new methods for these purposes. LÄS MER
7. Mathematical and mechanical neck models for low-velocity rear-end impacts : design and validation of biofidelic tools for crash safety evaluation
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
8. An Average Female Head-Neck Finite Element Model with Reflexive Neck Muscles
Sammanfattning : Several factors potentially contribute to the risk of whiplash injuries; one of them is the neck muscle activities. Muscle activities in the neck have been shown to influence the head-neck kinematics during whiplash-like rear impacts. LÄS MER
9. Alpine ski sport injuries in Swedish Lapland

10. Whiplash Associated Disorders in Frontal and Rear-End Car Impacts - Biomechanical Guidelines and Evaluation Criteria based on Accident Data and Occupant Modelling
Sammanfattning : Whiplash associated disorders, also called whiplash injuries or AIS1 neck injuries, represent one of the most significant types of injury in car crashes regarding both frequency and long-term consequences. The injury mechanisms are not fully understood, thus making it difficult to design and evaluate protection systems in cars. LÄS MER
