"Biomechanically realistic brain models" was invented by Brian Michael Coyle (Canyon, Calif.) and Alys Larsen (Canyon, Calif.).
According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A biomechanically realistic brain model for impact testing comprises white matter simulant materials and gray matter simulant materials positioned to correspond with anatomical brain structure. The white matter simulant comprises anisotropic hydrogels with embedded magnetically-responsive, electrically-responsive, thermally-responsive, and/or mechanically-responsive particles that exhibit directionally-dependent stress-strain responses. The gray matter simul...
