Abstract
Work in trauma biomechanics is subjected to a number of limitations which are less stringent or even totally absent in other fields of the technical and life sciences. First of all, experiments involving loading situations with humans which are prone to cause injury are excluded. Second, animal models are of limited use because of the difficulty to scale trauma events reliably from animals up or down to humans. Questionable representativeness with respect to human biomechanics in spite of some similarity, furthermore, cost and above all ethical considerations along with public awareness limit however such experiments to special circumstances today.
