An Algorithm for Estimating Acceleration Magnitude and Impact Location Using Multiple Nonorthogonal Single-Axis Accelerometers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Accelerations of the head are the likely cause of concussion injury, but identifying the specific etiology of concussion has been difficult due to the lack of a valid animal or computer model. ...
An Investigation of the NOCSAE Linear Impactor Test Method Based on In Vivo Measures of Head Impact Acceleration in American Football
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The performance characteristics of football helmets are currently evaluated by simulating head impacts in the laboratory using a linear drop test method. To encourage development of helmets ...
