Abstract

The response of the head to impact was investigated using live anesthetized and postmortem Rhesus monkeys and repressurized cadavers. The results of the test demonstrate the potential importance of skull deformation and angular acceleration on the injury produced in the live Rhesus and the damage produced in both the post-mortem Rhesus and the cadaver as a result of impact.
