Abstract:
Brain injury has become the most severe injury in traffic accident due to its high incidence and high fatality rate. The brain injury model plays a critical role in researches on brain injury. The constitutive model and the material properties used in the model are key factors in determining the accuracy of injury prediction. The present paper aims to review the application of constitutive models and material properties in brain simulation so as to better understand biomechanical properties of brain and provide references for finite element researches on brain injury.
