Blast-Related Lung Injury Risk Estimation Based on Chest Wall Velocity

Boutillier, Johanna; Prat, Nicolas; De Mezzo, Sébastien; Magnan, Pascal; Naz, Pierre

2021 Human Factors and Mechanical Engineering for Defense and Safety

doi:10.1007/s41314-021-00038-5

Exposure to a shock wave generated during an explosion may result in pulmonary trauma. For short-duration shock waves, the maximum of incident impulse is known to be correlated with the lung injury level of unprotected biological models. This study aims to correlate parameters related to large...
