Elucidating the mechanics of facet dislocation and fracture in the neck

该项目旨在解决在了解颈部创伤力学的缺点。了解导致颈椎小关节脱位和骨折的力学因素对改善损伤预防策略及其评估是必要的。该项目预计将在脊柱损伤生物力学领域产生新的知识，开发和使用新的实验技术。该项目预计将提供必要的知识，以改善碰撞试验假人设计，相关的伤害标准和计算模型，这为改进伤害预防措施和评估现有和新技术的方法提供了潜力。该项目的预期效益将在减少脊柱损伤的个人和经济负担方面具有重要意义。

This project aims to address shortcomings in understanding the mechanics of neck trauma. Understanding the mechanical factors leading to cervical facet dislocation and fracture is necessary to improve injury prevention strategies and their assessment. This project expects to generate new knowledge in the area of spinal injury biomechanics, developing and using new experimental techniques. The project expects to provide knowledge necessary to improve crash test dummy design, associated injury criteria, and computational models, which provide the potential for improved injury prevention measures and methods for assessing existing and new technologies. The anticipated benefits of this project will be significant in reducing the personal and economic burden of spinal injuries.
