Abstract

The objective of the present study was to assess the possibility of using the finite element analysis for the elucidation of the mechanism of formation of stab-cutting injuries. Stresses developing in the evidence-bearing material at different stages of penetration of a bladed article are estimated. The three-dimensional modeling program was employed for the purpose. The finite element analysis demonstrated differing stress topography resulting from the prick of the blade and its plunging into the evidence-bearing material.
