Parametric analysis and optimization of variables affecting the brain injury criterion (BrIC) in various crash scenarios - Hasija V, Takhounts EG, Craig MJ.

Incompressibility of the brain makes it susceptible to damage from shear strains. Head rotational motion can easily produce high shear strains causing brain injury. Since head injury criterion (HIC) does not account for rotational motion, a brain injury cr...
