Building a Better Helmet

Building a Better Helmet Building a Better Helmet Building a Better HelmetThe Schutt DNA Pro+ and Riddell Revolution Speed helmets are among the preferred choices in collegiate and professional football. Each is the end product of in-depth research and development at two of the most recognizable sporting goods companies in the United States. Both the DNA Pro + and Revolution Speed are designed to exacting specifications for safety and durability, and each helmet is certified by the National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment (NOCSAE). They are comparatively priced.But one of the football helmets, the Speed, receives a higher rating in tests assessing the capability to protect against concussion. The differences among the helmet models could be a determining factor in purchase decisions on the part of players and kollektiv personnel, particularly in view of the increased awareness of concussions and head trauma injuries in football.The ratings are compiled at Virg inia Tech, which for the last two years has been evaluating many of the popular helmet designs in an elaborate testing laboratory run by research experts in biomedical engineering and injury biomechanics. Based on the success of the research program, Virginia Tech is considering extending the testing program to helmets used in baseball, lacrosse, and other competitive sports.A Two-Pronged Research ProgramThe research for football helmets involves monitoring head impacts in addition to the lab tests on helmets. Since 2003, the researchers have been collecting and analyzing data from head impacts sustained in practice sessions and games by selected members of the Virginia Tech Hokies football team. We instrument each helmet with an accelerometer that monitors the head impacts experienced by a player during the course of a football season, says Steven Rowson, assistant professor in biomedical engineering at Virginia Tech.The data collected provides the basis for methods used to evaluat e helmets in the lab. In the tests, a head-form instrumented with the accelerometer and equipped with the test helmet is attached to a carriage positioned at the top of a twin-wire drop tower. A mechanical quick release allows free fall of the carriage and helmet, which strikes a padded steel anvil at the base of the tower. Rowson and his team put each helmet through a variety of drops, each one distinct according to impact location (front, rear, side and top) and drop height. Linear head acceleration is measured via the accelerometer in the test helmet, and the data is collected and analyzed.We can calculate an incidence of concussion by knowing how frequently each drop configuration is experienced by players, and the probability of injury associated with the head acceleration generated from the drop, explains Rowson, who spoke on the subject at the ASME 2012 Summer Bioengineering Conference in June. These values are then summated to produce an overall prediction of the number of c oncussions a player will experience over a full football season while wearing a given helmet.The Virginia Tech testing methodology, named STAR (Summation of Tests for the Analysis of Risk), assesses the overall ability of a helmet to reduce the probability of concussion. The researchers apply a complexity of mathematical equations and computations derived from real-world biomechanical data collected from on-field head impacts. The results of the assessments are reflected in the STAR values assigned to popular models of football helmets, and made available for public consumption. Rowson and his research colleagues have carried out measurements on more than 165,000 head impacts.The purpose of our program is to provide quantitative insight into the protective performance of football helmets against concussions, says Rowson. An objective of STAR, he says, is to provide sporting goods manufacturers with a set of criteria for helmets that reduce the probability of concussion.Expanding STA REfforts are currently underway at Virginia Tech to expand the STAR evaluation system to other sports, such as baseball. Given the unique dynamic in which a batted or thrown baseball impacts a helmet, the testing methodology in baseball will differ from the established system used in football. For example, projectile tests, rather than drop tests, would be performed in the evaluation of baseball helmets. Says Rowson While we have developed methods to test baseball impacts, we need to better understand the exposure to head impact in this sport prior to implementing an evaluation system for baseball helmets.In addition, Rowson and his colleagues have turned their attention to youth sports, particularly youth football. Researchers at Virginia Tech and Wake Forest University have begun a program to characterize the head impact exposure of youth football players, and this fall will instrument 300 participants to obtain quantifying data on exposure and tolerance levels. Youth players impa ct their heads at different rates, severities, and locations compared to collegiate and professional players, and so a modified evaluation system including different weightings for drop tests will be required, says Rowson.There exists widespread concern today about the safety of contact sports, particularly in light of recent media exposure of concussions in professional football. Some of the attention has been focused on whether helmets provide the essential capability to protect against concussions and other head injuries. Opinions vary.Rowson believes football helmets, for the most part, are well-designed in conformity with the NOCSAE standard. He says the recent rash of concussions in football, particularly professional football, is likely a result of elevated awareness of the injury in media reports and other public forums.The purpose of our program is to provide quantitative insight into the protective performance of football helmets against concussions.Prof. Steven Rowson, Vi rginia Tech

Pluralistic ignorance The value of self love and value

Pluralistic ignorance The value of self love and valuePluralistic ignorance The value of self love and valueIm an awful writer-in all thequintessential ways. Im wordy, dull, unimaginative and intellectually dishonestthe absolute worst just a doe-eyedwell meaning-dud factory.Its really easy to romanticize incompetence with a bounty of listicles constantly invading the internet like Top 5 places Oprah use to collect cans when she was 24.Or the sensational clickbaity ones like Did you know Genghis Khan was a barista before his exceptional tour of barbarism?I, like many others, took all the wrong lessons from my heros failures. I observed them as good omens through the cracked lens of a cheap telescope. J.K. Rowling also used to crash on her friends couch? I must be doing something right.Its true that T.S Elliot savagely rejected Animal Farm, but it wasnt because its author was a mud-mouthed dolt like I am.My Confederacy Of Dunces,a meandering snooze pamphlet I wrote in high school title d Space Monkey, will remain unpublished at my folks house back in PA, long after Ive finally built up the mettle.At the time,Space Monkey was the only thing Id ever think about. I would tell everyone about it. My friends, family, even strangers. One time I offered a homeless shoe-shiner 40 bucks to let me read the first chapter to him. He accepted. Initially.The plot followed a utopian-Issac Newton-obsessed rhesus monkey from Nepal named, Albert. He quits the monkey-start up hes working for and heads to Washington D.C to join the space program. All the other astronauts doubt Alberts abilities by reason of his monkey-ness. They instance their prejudice through nuanced lines of dialogue What do you know about space, monkey?This doesnt stop Albert though. He studies hard and is eventually cleared to board the first shuttle into spacewherein he dies on impact.The story is semi-biographical, its got pathos, heart and even some tragedy to boot.

A meditation, that sees the relief of truth morph instantly into unrelenting embarrassment. At 23, I blush to remember that, for years, my opus was a one-dimensional commentary on egalitarianism via the first monkey to go to space.The query letters accompanying the manuscript were histrionic and self-important they featured vivid illusions to generational change and references to James Baldwin.Discovering your passion and your aptitude arent on the saatkorn page is both dispiriting and necessary. Im sure youve heard ad nauseam about the upside of failure being its ability to teach us things about our craft and ourselves. Both of those things are true but, if we only allow it, failure has the potential to play a much bigger role in our progress.Failure is an unavoidable, reckless fair-minded entity. Its myopic to only take solace in the failures of your heroes because everyone is subject to it. Those of us that work hard-talented or untalented, as well as those of us that are lazy. Those of us that are kind, cruel, revel in risks and exercise prudence. Ultimately success belongs much more to chance than it does anything else, so give yourself a break and a fair shot. Weaponize failure against the tyranny of self-loathing.Stephen Fry recently sat down with Sam Harris where he talked about the fancy that leaches itself to youth. How we erroneously believe that ..we are particularly privileged to have this access to the staggering beauty of everything thethisness and thatness of a thing Fry recounts As a teenager, I didnt want to lose it. I was aware that this would pass, that this was a leiter I believed that music and art were pathwa ys to retaining it these profound feelings and revelations.The ghost of that intense relationship we have with the things we love rarely ever leaves us. In fact, it more often betrays us later in life. It demarcates success and failure with a stark-unforgiving line. To engage in work that isnt meaningful on our terms is to fail, shamefully and resolutely. Ive always empathized with that notion but I use to evidence my empathy unproductively.I would actively fight against the inner voices that told me I was never going to be a compelling novelist. I remained sanguine despite the freshet of evidence to the contrary. But the truth of the matter is, dedication and appreciation for a thing doesnt, as a rule, yield mastery. Sometimes the things youre passionate about just dont feel the same way about you. However, despite what society will have you believethis is not a death sentence.The things that make you-you are more than the things that you enjoy doing and your worth does not exist on a continuum of how proficient you are at them. Its all unbekannt of it sure, but youre bigger than that. Your identity cant be caged by external validation-itll get in your way and make you sterile. Good work is much more sympathetic to those with earnest intentions.The concept of just going in and doing the job is becoming more and more outmoded. The thing that pays our bills must additionally employ meaning and fund our sense of self. If it doesnt we submit to the professional malaise that defines our generation in the workplace.We all cant be promethium, authors of innovation. Some of us, are simply fine but hacks have to eat too. It doesnt matter if youre in a creative field or not, If you express fidelity to the job itself as oppose to what the job is supposed to mean, I think youll find both the work and your well-being to be in a much better state.Self-compassion is salient to mental and physical fortitude equally. According to a study published in the journalClinical Psyc hological Science, Being kind to oneself switches off the threat response and puts the body in a state of safety and relaxation that is important for regeneration and healing.Fulfillment cant be dependent on superficial factors. Your calling doubling as your career isnt a license for it to determine your worth.More importantly, the infection of doubt plagues everyone. Were all chasing the fear of being found out. Being outed as frauds. Instead of giving the doubt the power to make us withdraw, we can manipulate it into encouraging solidarity. Your coworker probably thinks (knows) they suck just like you do. Lets all make a point to suck together, unreservedly.Its OK to be just OK.
