Motorcycle helmets--a state of the art review.

TL;DR: In a non-restrictive, and never up-to-date report, a state-of-art review on road helmets safety is done, with a special insight into brain injury, helmet design and standards.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feasibility study on the use of a hierarchical lattice architecture for helmet liners

TL;DR: In this article, the feasibility of using a hierarchical lattice liners for helmets was studied and the results show that using such liners has the potential of significantly reducing the risk of head injury compared to a helmet with traditional EPS liners and could potentially be considered as the new generation of energy absorbing liners.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simulation-Based Assessment of Rear Effect to Ballistic Helmet Impact

TL;DR: In this paper, a simulation-based method was proposed to study the rear effect by using Head Injury Criterion (HIC) when the ballistic helmeted headform is impacted by a bullet with different impact angles and at various impact positions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of the body on the response of the helmeted head during impact

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the influence of the presence of the body on the impact response of the helmeted head and found that increased body mass has the same influence on impact outputs as including the whole body in impact tests.
Journal ArticleDOI

Head injury predictors in sports trauma--a state-of-the-art review.

TL;DR: This review paper gives a thorough overview of the work carried out by the scientific community in the field of impact biomechanics about head injuries sustained during sports activity and presents the head injury criteria and their respective thresholds.

[The role of diffuse axonal injury in psychiatric assessment of brain-head trauma].

TL;DR: While computer-tomography follow-up studies may be valuable for the detection of diffuse axonal injury, magnetic resonance imaging is superior due to better sensitivity and contrast-resolution.

Car Crash and Safety Testing

TL;DR: Initially, passive safety was conceived as the preservation of the integrity of the car’s interior compartment in a collision, to be ensured at the design stage, so as to offer a satisfactory degree of protection to the occupants.
