The Influence of Impact Mass, Inbound Velocity and System Compliance on the Dynamic Response of a Hybrid III Head Form
… in their protocols; a mechanism which mimics the head impacting the ground. Athletes are more commonly injured via collisions with other players; however, and the current certification standards do not incorporate this mechanism of injury in their test methodologies. At the most basic level, these …
