The effect of football helmet energy absorption mechanisms on the mitigation of cervical spinal injuries : a mathematical model /

A model was developed to examine the effect of different football helmet designs on energy dissipation and injury mitigation during head-on impacts which approach, but do not exceed, critical cervical spinal cord injury threshold levels. Based upon the simulations, increasing in neck damping provid...
