Investigation of the relationship between facial injuries and traumatic brain injuries using a realistic subject-specific finite element head model

[Display omitted] •We conduct simulations of 9 common impact scenarios of facial injuries.•We study the correlation between facial and brain injuries.•We evaluate the biomechanical metrics of the skeletal skull and intracranial tissues.•Severity of brain injury is highly associated with the proximit...
