Carotid is in charge of blooding head s parts including the brain and eyes. Hence Available online the evaluation of affected carotid flow by using neck collars is crucial for an improved 23 December 2014 ergonomic design. The testings were divided into three main categories participants without Keywords Computational fluid dynamic wearing neck collar Category 1 wearing neck collar Category 2 and finally wearing neck Echo-Doppler flow collar with an embedded gap adjacent to the carotid artery position Category 3 . The Football neck collar experimental and numerical results revealed that wearing the neck collar Category 2 reduced Carotid artery the average blood carotid flow by 28 compared to the case with no neck collar Category 1 . This average blood carotid flow reduction was improved by 15 when a gap separates the collar from the carotid artery position .
