    Some racing cars use aluminum or composite/carbon fiber honeycomb to form an attenuator that dissipates crash energy using a much smaller volume and lower weight than road car crumple zones. Crumple zones work by managing crash energy, absorbing it within the outer parts of the vehicle, rather than being directly transmitted to the occupants, while also preventing intrusion into or deformation of the passenger cabin. This better protects car occupants against injury. This is achieved by controlled weakening of sacrificial outer parts of the car, while strengthening and increasing the rigidity of the inner part of the body of the car, making the passenger cabin into a 'safety cell ', by using more reinforcing beams and higher strength…

    Football helmet

    The average tackle football player has a natural tendency to experience fear and tension when thinking about the heavy rate of concussion injuries within the sport. In response to the violently physical nature of the game, Riddell Sports has produced a helmet that provides the best defense to worries and consequences of a concussion. The Riddell Revolution 360 football helmet has been constructed by engineers to protect the mental processes and safety of players. As a football player myself, I can think of no better alternative for head trauma prevention than this helmet. Riddell takes into account and states that players sustain roughly 950 impacts to the head over the course of a season. As a result of this, the helmet places a strong emphasis on protection of the most impacted part of the head, the front. Patented in 2012, HIT technology was established by Riddell in their experiment labs to measure the severity and location of head impacts from all directions. This technology proves that detrimental impact to the brain can go unnoticed or misunderstood, and use it to prevent future mental problems for players. This product changes the way participants feel comfortable and confident on the playing field more than ever before. The technology that is added includes a new carbon steel facemask that flexes in reaction to impact. Also added to the helmet was a new face frame structure which is made up of continuous hexagonal shaped padding on the interior that shapes to players heads for a custom and tight fit. This is important for reducing the amount of force to the head, which will allow the sport to be more commonly tolerated by everyone interested. With the rise of cognitive damage in football due to head trauma, parents are more hesitant than ever to allow their children play the game at a young age. However, parents can be assured that the expanded technology in the Riddell 360 will protect their children like never before.…

    Finding the perfect helmet to fit a player and keep the player safe is tremendously hard since you have to find the right size that fits the player’s head. The NFL even polled selected franchises and developed the results that about “one third” of players were wearing helmets that are in the lowest performing group (Reyes). Now, since the players are wearing “lowest performing” helmets, of course there will be more concussions then. But in 2013, NFL, GE and Under Armour introduced the “Head Challenge in 2013 as part of the NFL and GE’s broader head health initiative” (Roberts). NFL, GE and Under Armour all invested about “20 million” for promising head injury solutions (Roberts). Xenith a rising company produces helmets that have venting air bladders that compress to however severe the impact is (Polnerow). This product for helmets can be very game changing for players. Nothing can prevent a concussion in sports but a product that compresses on how severe the impact is can continue to make the NFL a safer organization and players not being afraid to put that helmet on and go out onto that field and trying to catch the ball! A different company called Riddell created a helmet that utilizes “vinyl nitrile foam” with “high density” that has a larger shell for the helmet and increased amount of padding inside the helmet to…

Architected Lattice can help develop and transmit data from an impact of collision This material was made to improve that performance of football helmets. The team of researchers won the Head Health Challenge II that is a part of a $60 million Head Health initiative sponsored by the NFL, General Electric and Under Armour. There is a $500,000 grant for research, testing, and development of technology for the first year that comes with the award. There is also a possibility of getting a 1 million dollar grant in the second year. Larry Carlson director of advanced materials at the Institute for Technology Advancement at the UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science said, “We believe that in addition to preventing or reducing injuries from high-impact collisions on the football field, this material can be used in a variety of sports and recreational applications.” (Kisliuk)…
