Finite element study of energy absorption foams for headgear in football (soccer) games

A validated anatomical finite element head model is used to simulate a scenario of front-rear head impact in football games. The impact responses of the two heads are obtained to assess head injury risks. It has been shown that when the impact velocity v=2.5/s the possibility of inducing moderate in...
