Introduction
· Application of mechanical principles to all living things
· Bio mechanics is studied on the behavior of humans under internal and external forces, as well as applied engineering work.
· For mechanical engineers, biomechanics is important because to develop vehicles by understanding injury mechanisms.
Injury Tolerance Limit
- Describe as fractures, injuries of organs, and other injuries. A classification is done via Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) or Overall Abbreviated Injury Scale (OAIS).
- AIS is an anatomically based, consensus derived, global severity scoring system that classifies each injury in every body region according to its relative importance on a six point ordinal scale.
· The data span a range from 0 to 6.
© The purposes of AIS are:
ü to describe injuries anatomically,
ü to standardize injury terminology,
ü to rank injuries by severity
© Table 2 shows the relationship between injury description and AIS.
