Abstract
Shaken Baby Syndrome is a serious form of abusive head trauma caused by violent shaking of an infant, resulting in subdural hematoma, retinal bleeding, and brain swelling. In contrast, slow swaying motions soothe, console and comfort the child. In this paper, safe margin for relative displacement response caused by either displacement excitations or impulse excitations to the baby's head are studied using a multi-body dynamics approach. Using the proposed mathematical model, the dynamic behavior of the baby's brain is numerically simulated. In addition, the critical frequency and dynamic behavior due to applied initial velocity has been studied.
