Verification an Validation Report for ATBM Torso Finite Element Model

Abstract

This report documents the completed verification and validation (V and V) activities for the 360 human torso (includes the back) finite element model (FEM) as part of the blunt trauma Modeling and Simulation (M and S) program known as the Advanced Total Body Model (ATBM). The report details the specific requirements, acceptability criteria, and analysis methods used to validate the models data, conceptual model, and results, as well as verify its data, design, and implementation. The report summarizes the activities used to identify, evaluate, and quantify any limitations of the M and S as well as any risks associated with its use.
