Working Group Focus
In relation to COST Action TU1101, the primary focus of Working Group 3 was to:
- Analyse the motion of the head (kinematics) at the moment of impact in real-world accident conditions;
- Explore helmet impact conditions in order to improve helmet testing;
- Review existing head injury criteria based on global kinetic parameters;
- Achieve progress in the field of Finite Element Model-based head injury criteria;
- Propose new pass/fail criteria for helmet testing;
- Present a new helmet test method and suggest areas for further research;
