A Laboratory Study on the Kinematic and Pressure Responses of an Internally Pressurized Novel Surrogate Headform Subjected to Blunt Impacts
DownloadFall 2024
Instrumented surrogate head models – each of which exhibits varying degrees of complexity – are employed to study traumatic brain injury and mild traumatic brain injury. Despite advancements over the years, many existing surrogate head models lack a pressurized cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or...

ON THE ABILITY OF PROTECTIVE HEADGEAR TO ALTER SKULL AND BRAIN KINETICS DURING BLAST AND IMPACT: AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY USING A SURROGATE MODEL OF THE HUMAN HEAD WITH NOVEL INSTRUMENTATION
DownloadSpring 2019
Blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI) has become increasingly prevalent among military personnel over recent years. Head protection is fielded to mitigate the amount of energy imparted to head, as a result of ballistic and impact exposure. Despite the efficacy of contemporary headgear in...
