Abstract: [eng] [cze]
Detailed Finite Element Model of human head used for head injury assessment is presented in the article. Development of the model based on a series of postoperative CT images of high resolution is shortly described. The model is used in a model situation of a sport accident involving a 12-year old boy on whom a handball cage fell during a sport activity causing a serious injury of the boy’s head. An approach to quantify the injuries caused is described in the paper. Detailní konečnoprvkový model lidksé hlavy získaný na základě série pooperačních snímků slouží pro numerickou rekonstrukci poranění hlavy chlapce, na kterého spadla házenkářská branka při školní aktivitě. Výsledky analýzy jsou využity pro nástin možností numerického modelováni pro stanovení poranění hlavy.
