Human internal organs as a possible and textual world

Multi-Scale Characterization of Human Internal Organs

The purpose of this paper is to present a multi-scale approach for the biomechanical characterization of the human liver, spleen, lung and heart. A four step study is presented to quantify the injury mechanism, biomechanical response, and rate dependent constitutive model for each tissue. First, the CIREN and NASS databases were examined in order to determine crash characteristics for injuries ...

A morphological study of the areolae was undertaken between birth and day 3 to assess the number, secre...
