Characterization and Modeling of Thoraco-Abdominal Response of Blast Waves.
Abstract
Emphasis was placed on the determination of material properties in the lung and the calculation of pressure distribution within the lung during blast loading. The results show the definite presence of compressive wave motion which help explain the existing interthoracic pressure (ITP) data. Keywords: Blast waves; Finite element model.
