      Focusing on the development of a validated finite element model, this monograph presents a sophisticated approach to predicting and preventing traumatic brain injuries during vehicle collisions. The model, based on advanced imaging techniques, features over 293,000 nodes and 1,173,000 elements, accurately reflecting human anatomy. It incorporates detailed material properties and has demonstrated enhanced biofidelity compared to previous models. This innovative tool aims to refine Head Injury Criteria and improve safety systems, ultimately contributing to a deeper understanding of injury mechanisms in automotive contexts.
