1. Mathematical and mechanical neck models for low-velocity rear-end impacts : design and validation of biofidelic tools for crash safety evaluation
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
2. Neck Injury Risk in Rear-End Impacts. Risk Factors and Neck Injury Criterion Evaluation with Madymo Modelling and Real-Life Data
Sammanfattning : Soft-tissue neck injuries, also termed AIS 1 neck injuries, are common after low-speed rear-end impacts. These injuries, which can be long-lasting, have increased in frequency during the past few decades. There is no consensus regarding injury mechanisms; however, injury criteria have been proposed, without yet being fully evaluated. LÄS MER
3. Development of a Mechanical Model for Rear Impacts: Evaluation of Volunteer Responses and Validation of the Model
Sammanfattning : The objective of this research has been to develop a biofidelic crash-test dummy to facilitate design of seat systems with enhanced occupant protection in rear-end collisions. These frequent collisions may cause soft-tissue neck injuries to occupants in struck vehicles. LÄS MER
4. On associations between different factors and whiplash injury
Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to evaluate associations between different factors and whiplash injury (defined as a soft tissue injury to the neck without fracture or dislocation), focusing on risk of initial and future complaints. The objectives in Paper 1 and II was to determine whether exposure to a rear-end collision, with or without whiplash injury, is associated with future neck or shoulder pain (Paper 1) and other health complaints, besides neck pain (Paper II).

5. Patient-related aspects on WAD
Sammanfattning : Forces acting on the neck at a motor vehicle accident (MVA) can result in soft tissue injuries, commonly considered as "whiplash injuries", with different clinical manifestations, Whiplash Associated Disorders (WAD). The pathogenesis of WAD is obscure and the diagnosis is mainly based on history and symptoms. LÄS MER
