PT Journal AU Trebuna, F Hagara, M Hunady, R TI Strain Fields Identification of Chosen Cycling Helmets Types by Their Impact Loading SO Acta Mechanica Slovaca PY 2012 BP 22 EP 30 VL 16 IS 2 DI 10.21496/ams.2012.014 DE digital image correlation; drop test; cycling helmet AB The use of a modern digital image correlation method to investigation of drop tests of two chosen cycling helmets types is described in this contribution. The first type - Arcore T-16 represents the helmets with more rounded uncomplicated surface and the second one - Longus Entry has flatter but more complicated contour. The investigation was directed to determination of helmets deformation and strain fields during their impact to a barrier. A high-speed system Q-450 Dantec Dynamics with cameras SpeedSense9070 Phantom was used to shoot this short time interval. ER
