Using impact monitoring mouthguards to measure head impact exposure in elite ice hockey Open
Background: Even though women's ice hockey does not permit deliberate checking between players, female players are at similar or even higher risk to sustain concussions, as male players. Several studies have investigated head impacts in ic…

Peaks and Distributions of White Matter Tract-related Strains in Bicycle Helmeted Impacts: Implication for Helmet Ranking and Optimization Open
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) in cyclists is a growing public health problem, with helmets being the major protection gear. Finite element head models have been increasingly used to engineer safer helmets often by mitigating brain strain pe…

Evaluating child helmet protection and testing standards: A study using PIPER child head models aged 1.5, 3, 6, and 18 years Open
The anatomy of children’s heads is unique and distinct from adults, with smaller and softer skulls and unfused fontanels and sutures. Despite this, most current helmet testing standards for children use the same peak linear acceleration th…

Influence of Strain Post-Processing on Brain Injury Prediction Open
Finite element head models are a tool to better understand brain injury mechanisms. Many of the models use strain as output but with different percentile values such as 100 th , 95 th , 90 th , and 50 th percentiles. Some use the element v…

Towards a comprehensive delineation of white matter tract-related deformation Open
Finite element (FE) models of the human head are valuable instruments to explore the mechanobiological pathway from external loading, localized brain response, and resultant injury risks. The injury predictability of these models depends o…

The effect of impact velocity angle on helmeted head impact severity: a rationale for motorcycle helmet impact test design Open
The impact velocity angle determined by the normal and tangential velocity has been shown to be an important description of head impact conditions but can vary in real-world accidents. The objective of this paper was to investigate the eff…
