Bridging the gap
This meeting will include speakers from the areas of biology, biosciences and biomechanics
and will explore and demonstrate new developments and tools which are now available for
solving many problems which link these disciplines. Here for instance, mechanotransduction,
tissue engineering and nano/micro/macro models of biological structures are some of the
new areas where collaboration between the biosciences, engineering and computer
technologies are proving to be particularly fruitful. It is the aim of this meeting to focus on
‘bridging the gap’ between biologists and bioengineers by providing examples of applications
and explanations of how the various scientific tools now being developed, can be
successfully applied in practice.

Modelling the Shaken Baby Syndrome – Study I• Sheffield University, Department of Mechanical Engineering. I. Howard, E. Patterson and
co workers. 2001
• Physical child abuse is common
• In UK estimated that 200 infants may die from brain injuries arising from violent shaking.
• Perhaps 400 survive with severe mental & physical disability
• Damage to the retina (light sensitive part of eye)
• Is often found in shaken babies together with brain injuries
• Combined brain and eye injuries are rare in severe accidental head trauma

Modelling the Shaken Baby Syndrome – Study IISheffield University, Department of Mechanical Engineering. J Rowson, D Batterbee, 2008
� To study the hypothesis “That infants are more susceptible to SBS
due to the presence of the fontanelle”
� As the brain cavity is not rigidly enclosed, damage to the brain and
surrounding tissues is more likely
12
23
� Initial aim of present work
� To validate Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) models using
more formal methods e.g. using various sinusoidal
excitations of different amplitude and frequency

• Fluid elements have Lagrangian formulation i.e. nodes move and deform with the material
• Nodes between fluid and surrounding parts are merged i.e. contact definitions are not required

event
