TLDR
It is shown that the Gadd Severity Index and the Head Injury Criterion are plausible and fundamentally correct forms of criteria, in contrast to criticisms which have appeared in the literature.About:

The Head Injury Criterion (HIC) functional
TL;DR: By investigating the form of the HIC functional, it is possible to extract structural information by the computation of the moments of the functional, including the average HIC value, HIC variance, and higher-order HIC moments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Literature review of head injury biomechanics
TL;DR: This literature survey provides an assessment of hypothesized brain injury mechanisms, brain injury criteria, mathematical models of head injury and available techniques for measuring head kinematics and brain tissue deformations associated with exposure to dynamic loads.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Influence of Head Impact Threshold for Reporting Data in Contact and Collision Sports: Systematic Review and Original Data Analysis
TL;DR: Until in-field validation studies are completed, it is recommended that head impact data should be reported as median and interquartile ranges using the 10-g impact threshold.

TL;DR: Collisions occurring on special teams plays over long closing distances were most severe while collisions occurring onspecial teams and defensive plays over short closing distances resulted in the least severe impacts.

Computer Simulation of Head Impact: Estimation of Head-Injury Risk during Soccer Heading
TL;DR: With a validated mathematical model of the head-neck consisting of nine rigid bodies (skull, seven cervical vertebrae, and torso), simulated head impacts to estimate the injury risk associated with soccer heading and showed that injury risk from angular head accelerations was greater than from linear head Accelerations.

Protection of the head and neck in sports.
TL;DR: Existing data on factors at work in athletic injuries to the head and neck are reviewed and the thickness of padding required can be computed from the weight and velocity of the injuring object.

Experimental studies of side impact to the human head
TL;DR: In an ongoing effort to develop an accurate model of human head impact relationships, two series of impacts were performed on the side of a human cadaver head at the junction of the temporal and parietal bones as discussed by the authors.
