Automotive and Human Injury Biomechanics

The precision of Finite Element Analysis in skeletal biomechanics is heavily dependent on the accurate representation of bone’s material symmetry. This study aims to quantify the influence of isotropic, transversely isotropic, and orthotropic material models on the mechanical response of a detailed human femur model i…

ABSTRACTObjective: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical characteristics, treatments administered and mortality-related factors of adult patients treated for traffic accident–related trauma in a tertiary care intensive care unit.Materials and Methods: A total of 183 patients aged ≥18 years who were admitted to the…

The increasing prevalence of micromobility and motorized two-wheelers (MTWs) in urban areas has introduced complex patterns of accident mechanisms and injury outcomes. This study proposes a conceptual mapping that links the kinematic sequence of impact with the clinical end results of trauma in two-wheeler crashes. Dr…

Pectus excavatum is a rare congenital anomaly encountered in small animal practice. The present case involved a three-month-old, intact, male, mixed-breed, stray kitten presented to our clinic with complaints of respiratory distress and a visible depression of the thoracic wall. Based on physical and radiographic exam…

Background and Objectives: Courier-operated motorcycles and mopeds have become increasingly visible in urban traffic, raising concerns about injuries among both couriers and pedestrians struck by courier-operated vehicles. The study period coincided with the COVID-19 pandemic; however, this study was not designed to e…

Traffic crashes remain a major global public health threat, yet most studies focus on crash severity rather than pre-crash factors. This study examines fault attribution as a classification criterion in pedestrian-vehicle accidents, separately analyzing accidents where only the driver or only the pedestrian is at faul…

Maluliyet değerlendirmelerinde kullanılan yönetmeliklerde, hastanın arızasının tam olarak karşılığının bulunmadığı durumlardaki yaklaşım farklılıkları sonucu doğan zarar, adli-tıbbi uygulamalarda önemli bir sorundur. Sunulan olgu, Temmuz 2016’da trafik kazası sonucu yaralanmış olup maluliyet oranının hesaplanması için…

Travmatik beyin hasarı (TBH), akut dönemde mortaliteye, uzun vadede ise kalıcı nörolojik, bilişsel ve davranışsal bozukluklara yol açabilen, heterojen ve çok boyutlu bir klinik tablodur. Travmaya yol açan mekanik kuvvetlerin çeşitliliği, bireysel biyolojik farklılıklar ve ikincil hasar süreçlerinin karmaşıklığı, TBH’n…

Amaç: Trafik kazası, iş kazası, ateşli silah yaralanmaları, darp gibi adli olayların meydana geldiği tarihe göre farklı maluliyet cetvelleri ve yönetmelikler kullanılarak raporlar düzenlenmektedir. Bu çalışmada, maluliyet hesabında kullanılan yönetmeliklerin alt ekstremiteyi ilgilendiren kısımlarının incelenmesi, aral…
