This paper presents results from both experiments and numerical simulations of frontal and
lateral ballistic impacts on a Hybrid III headform equipped with Advanced Combat Helmets …

Despite recent efforts to understand blast effects on the human brain, there are still no widely
accepted injury criteria for humans. Recent animal studies have resulted in important …

Modern designing process of combat helmets requires both numerical modeling and
experimental validation in order to achieve exigent requirements combining impact …

This paper focuses on helmet design for head protection under blast threats. It is presented
a numerical investigation of the head response accruing to blast loads on helmet protective …

Human necks are vulnerable in train collision accidents. To design a safer cab workspace,
the driver neck injury mechanism should be investigated first. In this study, this issue is …

Head injuries due to complex blasts are not well examined because of limited published
articles on the subject. Previous studies have analyzed head injuries due to impact from a …

This paper deals with the analytical and the numerical computation of elastoacoustic
vibration modes. We determine in the present study the eigenfrequencies and the modal …

The mechanism of cerebrospinal fluid in mitigating closed head injuries caused by mild
impacts was investigated by finite-element modeling. Three biomechanical models were …

The safety of roadside restraint systems in Europe is ensured by the EN 1317 regulation.
The ability of the barrier to mitigate injury to the occupants of vehicles is tested according to …
