An analysis of maximum vehicle G forces and brain injury in motorsports crashes

Article Abstract:

Traumatic brain injury from automobile crashes is a major source of trauma deaths and the investigation of crashes to understand factors of occupant injuries is an established practice and the association between vehicle G forces (G) sustained on impact and brain injury in motor sports crashes is evaluated. The findings reveal that Indy Racing League car crashes with peak vehicle G greater than equal to 50 are associated with the development of traumatic brain injuries.

Knee joint kinematics during the sidestep cutting maneuver: potential for injury in women

Article Abstract:

The knee joint kinematics during a sidestep maneuver in women is illustrated in a computer model. Although more women than men are at risk for anterior cruciate ligament injuries, the model failed to substantiate a gender impact during sidestepping and joint rotation.
