Abstract

Extent of hemorrhaging and cell damage determined by histological studies of sections taken from the vicinity of the loading site will be correlated with the states of strain within this section. The investigation should result in a fragility index of the brain which will establish the minimum states of strain and stress for venule rupture. This paper reports a finite element procedure for determining such strain distribution in the vicinity of the indentor used in the animal experiment.
