N2  - A review of the current medical and engineering literature provides sufficient understanding of head injury to direct meaningful research. Fruitful areas of research should emphasize a more complete evaluation of three dimensional translational and rotational motion of the dummy head during impacts associated with serious head injury. Accurate measurement of head dynamics will allow a more realistic analysis of the potential for brain injury at the known sites of primary vascular damage. The analysis procedure can rely on an advanced finite element model of the skull and brain; and, it can predict relative motion between brain and skull, and shear strains in the brain. (TRRL)<p />
