Computational mechanics. Contents Concussion in Soccer -- Mathematical Modelling of Soccer Heading -- Soccer Ball Finite Element Model -- Human Head Finite Element Model -- Simulation of Soccer Heading Manoeuvre -- Analysis of Protective Headgear Summary This short book provides a concise study of the mechanics of head impact in a soccer heading manoeuvre. It describes the development and validation of finite element models of soccer ball and human head, as well as the simulation of brain dynamics after ball-to-head impact. In addition, it also presents a computational study of the efficacy of wearing protective headgear in mitigating the risk of concussion due to heading in soccer Bibliography Includes bibliographical references Notes Online resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed May 1, 2018) Subject Soccer -- Physiological aspects.
