The helmet drop test – high speed camera During the helmet drop test, it is essential to determine the impact velocity. Also, the behavior of the helmet after impact can be analyzed. Measuring the impact velocity using the DIC method is more convenient than numerical integration acceleration from accelerometers. The experimental setup consists of a […]

HIGH-PRECISION ANALYSIS OF BOOT DOOR MOTION To evaluate the kinematic behaviour, oscillations and deformation of the car boot mechanism during the closing sequence, a dynamic measurement campaign was conducted using a 3D Digital Image Correlation (DIC) system. A large speckle-patterned calibration cloth was first employed to quickly establish an accurate stereo-camera calibration across the required
