چکیده
Patterned bruises are frequently noted on trauma victims. Although these bruises do not require any specific treatment, they provide objective evidence of impact. They also provide valuable clues to determining the impacting object, the mechanism of injury and have medico-legal importance. We present a case to illustrate and discuss the clinical utility of patterned bruises.

متن کاملModeling Static Bruising in Apple Fruits: A Comparative Study, Part II: Finite Element Approach
ABSTRACT- Mechanical damage degrades fruit quality in the chain from production to the consumption. Damage is due to static, impact and vibration loads during processes such as harvesting, transportation, sorting and bulk storage. In the present study finite element (FE) models were used to simulate the process of static bruising for apple fruits by contact of the fruit with a hard surface. Thr...
متن کاملModeling Static Bruising in Apple Fruits: A Comparative Study, Part I: Analytical Approach
ABSTRACT- Bruising degrades the quality of fresh apple fruits. Reducing bruise damage is of utmost importance in designing and developing processing equipments. The main objective of the present study was to introduce an analytical method to predict the allowable static load applicable to apple fruits. To predict the strain energy absorbed by the fruit, a point load was applied on the solid sph...
متن کاملA Nonlinear Model of Economic Data Related to the German Automobile Industry
