Abstract:
Here, we describe the development and use of a novel biofiedlic head surrogate for evaluating head and hearing protection devices against impulsive, shock, and blast insults. The head surrogate, derived from biomedical imagery, includes biofidelic pinnea, ear canals, and skull. In addition to microphones positioned at the ear canal terminus, the surrogate includes accelerometers and a hydrophone to provide an estimate of sound propagation through the bone-conduction pathways. This allows use of the surrogate to estimate a device's ability to attenuate bone-conducted pressure waves. We discuss

Abstract:
Shock tube experiments were performed to investigate the blast response of corrugated steel cellular core sandwich panels filled with a silicone based syntactic foam at room and high temperatures. The syntactic foam filler was prepared by mixing a two-part silicone mixture with glass microspheres; its microstructure, and mechanical properties were also characterized. The syntactic foam-filled sandwich panels were loaded via air shock pressure by using the shock tube with a fixture capable of testing materials at temperatures up to 900℃.

When we inquire into the nature of works of art we can see at a glance that there is a good deal of evidence against aesthetic idealism, the view that artworks are, in the final analysis, imaginary objects in the minds of their creators. We believe, for instance, that the National Gallery not only contingently but in some sense necessarily weighs more than merely the sum of the empty building, the people in it, and the assorted fixtures. This sum must also include the weight of canvases, the oils on them, carved stone and marble, and so on, all of which add up to substantially more than nothin

Abstract:
Blast-induced spinal cord injuries (bSCI) are common and account for 75% of all combat-related spinal trauma. It remains unclear how the rapid change in pressure contributes to pathological outcomes resulting from these complex injuries. Further research is necessary to aid in specialized treatments for those affected. The purpose of this study was to develop a preclinical injury model to investigate the behavior and pathophysiology of blast exposure to the spine, which will bring further insight into outcomes and treatment decisions for complex spinal cord injuries (SCI).

Abstract:
Background Individuals who have undergone transhumeral amputation often have difficulty wearing conventional socket-based prostheses, leading to frequent dissatisfaction and abandonment of the prosthesis. Osseointegration surgery may alleviate or mitigate many of these issues by providing a firm, reliable attachment between the humerus and the prosthesis, potentially leading to better functionality and quality of life; however, it is unclear whether the risks inherent to transdermal bone-anchored implants outweigh the potential functional benefits.

Abstract:
In the modern-day society, there are an increasing number of explosions, either by accidental explosions or by terrorist attacks on civilian and military infrastructure. In view of the increased threat to infrastructure and lives of people from explosions, there is an urgent need to precisely predict the blast loads resulting from detonation of high explosives, accurately assess the structural responses to blast loads and develop effective blast mitigation technologies and materials which require extensive field testing. One of the most effective methods for protection against blast waves is t

Abstract:
This paper discusses the design of a hardened enclosure for high pressure extreme temperature (HPET) pneumatic testing of seals. The seal test fixture is located within a blast-fragment barrier (BFB) in case of a failure of the test fixture. The BFB is located within a hardened test room since the BFB has a 1-in annulus air gap to allow for cabling access to the test fixture, through which shock and gas pressure can propagate out into the room. A 30.5in3 (0.51) volume charged with 15,000psi (1034bar) of compressed nitrogen under a temperature range of −50°F to 400°F was used to produce the wor

Underbody Blast (UBB) events subject vehicle occupants to large accelerations that often result in severe lumbar spine injury. Little knowledge exists on the intervertebral disc response during high-rate vertical accelerative loading. To address this gap, the current study investigates intradiscal pressures under UBB loading utilizing biomechanical testing from: 1) isolated Post Mortem Human Surrogate (PMHS) lumbar spine motion segments (LMS) in a custom-designed drop tower fixture; and 2) whole body (WHBO) PMHS in a custom-designed Vertically Accelerated Load Transfer System.
