Abstract

This paper presents the results of a series of tests of five brands of motorcycle helmets to determine their force-deformation characteristics and their resistance to penetration. Tests were carried out with helmets mounted on headforms. Among the test variables were point of loading, environmental preconditioning, loading rate, and headform type.
