The head model
Schematic drawing showing the head of the commercially available human body model THUMS equipped with a simplified version of a safety helmet in which the liner is a hierarchical lattice structure. The REDIPhE research project will not use the simplistic THUMS head model, but we will develop very detailed and bio-faithful head models. We will use as well models of commercially available safety helmets.
All selected impact cases, representing meaningful impact configurations, will be simulated with both the innovative liner and with the state of the art currently adopted liner and the injury measure values of the two cases will be compared.
