The purpose of this study was to increase our understanding of the head impact level that will produce concussion in humans. The technique employed was that of accident restaging. The investigation reported here was composed of three parts: 1) the Cornell accident records were reexamined to establish the frequency of brain concussion as a function of windshield damage; 2) tests were conducted with instrumented cadavers to determine the head accelerations achieved when the appropriate windshield damage levels were obtained; 3) head injury indexes were calculated from the measured accelerations, and their predictions were compared to the Cornell field data. /HSRI/
