title: [Simulation of the mechanisms of formation of stab and slash wounds by the finite element method].
abstract: The application of finite element analysis for the simulation of penetration of a blade with the broken tip through the skin made it possible to visualize the process of its destruction and to assess the trace-forming properties of the blade. The findings obtained in the present study confirm the results of previous attempts to consider the damage to tissues by pointed objects in terms of theoretical mechanics based on the theory of material cutting.
