A Computational Model of the Eye for Primary and Secondary Blast Injury

Abstract

This report describes the FY12 research accomplishments and their significance. In this second year of the project, we focused on developing a computational model to assess the effects of facial features and deformability of ocular tissues on the blast impact. In addition, we have made significant progress towards developing a constitutive model for the stress response of the cornea and sclera that includes the anisotropic effects of the collagen fiber structure. Moreover, we have begun developing analysis methods for the dynamical inflation experiments. These accomplishments are important steps in examining all three hypotheses. We have made significant progress towards all three Specific Aims guiding the project.
