Abstract:
The finite element method(FEM)is a numerical computation method based on computer tech-nology, and has been gradually applied in the fields of medicine and biomechanics. The finite element analysis can be used to explore the loading process and injury mechanism of human body in traffic in-jury. FEM is also helpful for the forensic investigation in traffic injury. This paper reviews the develop-ment of the finite element models and analysis of brain, cervical spine, chest and abdomen, pelvis, limbs at home and aboard in traffic injury in recent years.
