MATERIAL PROPERTIES OF THE POST-MORTEM STOMACH IN HIGH-RATE EQUIBIAXIAL ELONGATION

摘要

Results from 27 high-rate equibiaxial tissue tests conducted on post-mortem stomach samples were presented. Tests conducted in this study identify the failure thresholds for the stomach loaded in equibiaxial stretch at rates expected to be experienced in MVCs. Material property data acquired in this study contribute to the biomechanical dataset useful for the prediction of soft tissue injury in automobile collisions.
