Abstract

A validated 5th and 95th percentile Chinese head model was used to investigate the influence of head dimensions on the biomechanical responses by comparing acceleration, intracranial pressure and shear stress of the heads with different dimensions under the same impact energy. Moreover, the reasonability of scaling method used in the research considering head dimensions was discussed by respectively scaling the small head to a big one and scaling the big head to a small one. It therefore more scientifically provides a newer and more scientific reference for the assessment of head injury.
