Development of a New Acceptance Criterion for M-1 Helmets. Phase 1. Analyses of Data and Development of Inspection Plan

Abstract

Data obtained on a previous study of M-I helmets were analyzed to provide the basis for implementation of thickness as the inspection parameter for helmet protection. A strong, linear relationship between ballistic limit (the current inspection parameter) and thickness was found. This relationship serves as the justification for the recommended change in inspection procedure. An inspection-by-attributes plan is recommended for use with the thickness inspection.
