Constitutive Modeling and Numerical Implementation of Brain Tissue Including Damage KU Leuven
Introduction:
Brain injury is one of the main causes of mortality and morbidity. Different types of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) are known where Ischemia is a common pathway. Elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) is associated with ischemia and poor outcome after TBI. The brain is consisted of different constituents such as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), the porous solid tissue and the blood. The values of normal and raised ICP are given in ...

Structural and mechanical characterization of thet superior sagittal sinus - bridging vein complex. KU Leuven
Acute subdural hematoma (ASDH) is one of the most frequent lesions inside the head observed in victims of bicycle related accidents. In nearly one third of the ASDH cases, the etiopathology directly relates to the rupture of a bridging vein (BV) which drains blood from the cerebral cortex into the superior sagittal sinus (SSS). To study the biomechanics of ASDH and other traumatic brain injuries and to assess the efficacy and improve the ...
