They present not only a threat to vehicle occupants during times of conflict, but their humanitarian impact extends into the future. The lower extremity is still the predominantly injured body region following an AV mine blast. Shallow buried mines detonations occurring under the vehicle transmit high amplitude and short duration axial loads onto the foot-ankle-tibia region of the occupant causing injuries to the lower leg.enMIL-Lx lower legTHOR-LxLandminesHIII ATDConference PresentationPandelani, T.
