The dura is traditionally viewed as a supportive fibrous covering of the brain containing the
dural venous sinuses but otherwise devoid of vessels and lacking any specific function …

Background Traumatic brain injury (TBI) in combat sports is relatively common, and
rotational acceleration (RA) is a strong biomechanical predictor of TBI. This review …

This study is aimed to develop a high quality, extensively validated finite element (FE)
human head model for enhanced head injury prediction and prevention. The geometry of …

Head injuries are common for cyclists involved in collisions. Such collision scenarios result
in a range of injuries, with different head impact speeds, angles, locations, or surfaces. A …

Traumatic brain injury is a leading cause of disability and mortality. Finite element-based
head models are promising tools for enhanced head injury prediction, mitigation and …

In accidents, motorcycle riders full-face helmets often make oblique impacts with road
surfaces. Finite element analysis was used to predict the rotational and linear acceleration of …

New oblique impact methods for evaluating head injury mitigation effects of helmets are
emerging, which mandate measuring both translational and rotational kinematics of the …

Most acute subdural hematomas (ASDHs) develop after rupture of a bridging vein or veins.
The anatomy of the bridging vein predisposes to its tearing within the border cell layer of the …

Head injuries occur in a great variety of sports. Many of these have been associated with
neurological injuries, affecting the central nervous system. Some examples are motorsports …

Motorcyclists are at high risk of head injuries, including skull fractures, focal brain injuries,
intracranial bleeding and diffuse brain injuries. New helmet technologies have been …
