Revealing the role of material properties in impact-related injuries: Investigating the influence of brain and skull density variations on head injury severity

Quantitative assessment of traumatic brain injury risk in diverse age groups of females: Insights from computational biomechanics

“…While our focus on isolating geometrical changes allowed for a more precise investigation of their impact on head injury severity, we acknowledge that variations in these properties with aging may influence injury outcomes. Although ongoing research, including our recent investigation into density variations and their impact on head injury severity, aims to address this limitation, further studies exploring material properties across different ages are warranted to enhance our understanding in this area [ 26 ]. Comprehensive Biomechanical Analysis: Another limitation of our study is the focus solely on biomechanical properties of the skull, CSF, and brain, without considering other factors that may influence susceptibility to TBI, such as differences in neck musculature, relative risk of fall, and participation in high-risk activities.…”
