| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to quantify the head accelerations when being thrown by judo techniques. When Judo expert threw the dummy using two throwing techniques: Osoto-gari and Ouchi-gari, the dummy fell backwards with the occipital area of the skull contacting the tatami. Peak resultant translational and rotational accelerations were observed at the initial contact. Therefore, avoiding head contact is essential to prevent head injury. When the cushioning-mat installed under the tatami, the peak values of resultant translational acceleration were significantly less for both techniques; whereas the resultant rotational acceleration did not decrease significantly for both. In addition, average peak values of the resultant translational acceleration were tend to higher for Ouchi-gari than for Osoto-gari; however average peak values of the resultant rotational acceleration were adversely higher for Osoto-gari. The discrepancy is due to the difference in the recipient’s kinematics.
