Influence of Friction at the Head–Helmet Interface on Advanced Combat Helmet (ACH) Blunt Impact Kinematic Performance
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare the rotational blunt impact performance of an anthropomorphic test device (ATD: male 50% Hybrid III head and neck) headform donning an Advanced Combat Helmet (ACH) between conditions in which the coefficient of static friction (μs) at the head-to-helmet pad interface varied.
