title: Absorption of the impact energy in the palmar soft tissues.
abstract: In 30 anatomical specimens of the forearm the dynamic fracture of radius has been performed with a special hammer. In these specimens the pure kinetic energy of the fracture of the radius and the absorption of the impact energy in the palmar soft tissues has been determined.
