Analysis of the Potential of Different Foam Materials in Face Protection to Reduce the Risk of Concussions in Ice Hockey

 Ice hockey players are at a high risk to sustain a concussion. Most of the concussion-inducing hits are to the jaw region, nevertheless, most players do not wear any protective gear shielding the jaw.  This parametric study used finite element simulations in LS-Dyna to evaluate the potential of foa...
