Head injuries from blunt impact are a major cause of death. Impact loads on the head, occuring for example when a person is ivolved in a car or sports accident, may cause tissues to deform beyond recoverable limits resulting in injuries. Knowledge of the mechanisms by which all impact loads result in injury is still incomlete.

Dvoupulzní holointerferometrie současně s laserinterferometrem je použita pro výzkum šíření vln v lidksé lebce. Ráz je generován vzorky s výbušnými drátky.
