A combined experimental and numerical study of stab-penetration forces
(Elsevier, 2013-12)The magnitude of force used in a stabbing incident can be difficult to quantify, although the estimate given by forensic pathologists is often seen as 'critical' evidence in medico-legal situations. The main objective of ... -
Toward a predictive assessment of stab-penetration forces
(Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2015-09)Collaborative research between the disciplines of forensic pathology and biomechanics was undertaken to investigate the hyperelastic properties of human skin, to determine the force required for sharp instrument penetration ...
