Miss St engineering guys construct football helmet based on study of how rams' anatomy protects their brains when they, well, ram things... and of woodpeckers' anatomy when they... woodpeck(?)...

 

Stuff they learned from ram anatomy led to a new helmet design... (no word about whether woodpecker anatomy contributed anything...)

 

Supposedly, the resulting helmet is "3 times more likely to reduce concussions" than current helmets... (whatever that really means)...

 

No pix of it, just words about it:   https://www.seccount...uce-concussions

 

From: http://www.me.msstat...ootball-helmet/

The spiral geometry of both the ram’s horn and woodpecker’s hyoid bone transform a longitudinal normal stress wave into a shear wave, causing the wave to disperse.
