TY - JOUR PY - 1979// TI - Intracranial pressure relationships in the protected and unprotected head JO - Proceedings: Stapp Car Crash Conference A1 - Nahum, A. M. A1 - Smith, Ron A1 - Raasch, F A1 - Ward, C. SP - 615 EP - 636 VL - 23 IS - N2 - This paper represents a continuation of previous research on closed head impact in the human cadaver and an associated mathematical model. Two different sets of experiments were conducted: sequential impacts on a single embalmed helmeted specimen; and impact experiments on individual helmeted unembalmed specimens. Impact parameters and intracranial pressures were measured. A finite element model is presented which can predict the intracranial pressures throughout the brain for the first 8 msec.
