Abstract

Attempts at identifying the contact areas on helmets by means of head impact studies revealed that the areas surrounding the ears and the area at the base of helmets need to be paid greater attention to. From the design point of view, the energy absorption of these areas could still be improved. It needs to be considered that the anchorage points of the visor and the fastening or securing devices of the chin do not turn into break-away points.
