Abstract
Different forms of rugby may pose distinct risks to head injury. Video of rugby match footage was analyzed using head impact magnitude, frequency, and time interval for 15s and 7s athletes. Impacts were reconstructed in laboratory, and finite element modeling was used to estimate maximum principal strain. No difference was found in impact frequency or time interval between the two forms. Significantly more head impacts of higher severity levels were documented during 7s. These findings provide objective comparisons between 7s and 15s which may guide risk mitigation strategies in managing brain trauma for specific forms of rugby.
期刊介绍：
The primary aims of Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering are to provide a means of communicating the advances being made in the areas of biomechanics and biomedical engineering and to stimulate interest in the continually emerging computer based technologies which are being applied in these multidisciplinary subjects. Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering will also provide a focus for the importance of integrating the disciplines of engineering with medical technology and clinical expertise. Such integration will have a major impact on health care in the future.
