Description
Summary:All helmets are designed to prevent head injury of wearer by captivating momentum and preventing infiltration. Aside from the ability to absorb energy, their volume and weight are also essential considerations, as increase in both will increase the danger of damage to the user's body parts. Annually, several construction labours were killed or critically incapacitated due to head traumas. Appropriate helmet not only decreases the chances of serious damage but also reduces loss of life. This study focuses on static and impact analysis of the helmet for several cases depicting the application of load on different positions of the helmet. The helmet was designed in Solid Works, and the analysis was done with the commercial software ANSYS. The total deformation, stress distribution, and total strain were used as performance indicators.
