Abstract     Mechanical injuries of the head are the cause of the appearance of contusion damage to the brain. Some parts are more frequently and more seriously damaged than others. Of particular interest is why interior damages are far from the spot point of contact of the mechanical force. Hitherto several explanations were provided which will be mentioned in the present paper. On the basis of natural mechanical laws in the hydraulic impact field the authors had found new reasons for the distribution of contusion damages.
