Abstract

In recent years, the "Mean Strain Criterion" (MSC) for head impacts has been re- evaluated and an improved version formulated. Based on these models, now called "Translational Head Injury Models" (THIM) and 37 lateral head impacts to three species of primates, a new head injury criteria is presented. It was concluded that the Translational Energy Criteria from the THIM and the HIC values from the THIM, both correlated very well with head injury. But, the TEC was more comprehensive and revealed more injury detail than the HIC.
