“…All these models have been used previously when modelling sports equipment e.g., [9][10][11][12]. The Prony series coefficients and linear viscoelastic model parameters were obtained through matching to the first 20 s of the 50% compression stress relaxation data after full compression was achieved (Figure 1d).…”

Wrist injuries are the most common types of injury in snowboarding. Protectors can reduce injury risk by limiting wrist hyperextension and attenuating impact forces. There are a range of wrist protector concepts available, but it is unclear if any particular design is more effective. The aim of this study was to develop and validate a finite element model of an impact on the palmar pad from a protector. Pad material from a protector was characterised to obtain stress vs strain data, and determine whether it was rate dependent. Material data was implemented into a finite element model to predict impact behavior at 2.5 J. Four material models were investigated, with an Ogden model paired with a Prony series providing the best agreement to experimental data. Future work will build a model of a complete protector for predicting the protective levels of these products.

The popularity of the futsal games has gradually increased since it was introduced in Uruguay. Since that, the futsal games became a medium for the young players to train to be professional footballers. Many coaches are avoiding heading tactic until they are 12 years of age. This technique can lead into the potential cause of traumatic brain injury. To date there has been no study to predict the deformation of the futsal ball in normal impact on flat surface at low speeds. The purpose of this study is to investigate the deformation behavior of the futsal ball upon impact. The free fall drop test is performed on the futsal ball size 4 when hitting a rigid target at different heights 500mm, 1,000mm, and 1,500mm. The result shows that, the higher ball drop, the higher deformation of the ball. Then, a finite element model (FEM) of a futsal ball was constructed and the simulation of the ball analysis was done by comparison between two materials, which were Butyl Rubber (IIR) and Latex Rubber (NR). The results show that, the Butyl Rubber is the better material for futsal ball construction, as there are less deformation and stress which is in allowable stress. However, further improvement needs to be done by taking into consideration of the futsal ball under large deformation as well as at a high impact.Index Terms-Futsal ball, deformation, impact analysis, finite element modelling.

“…In developing an finite element (FE) model for cricket bats and balls, James, Curtis, Allen, and Rippin (2012) established the validity of a rigid body model of the cricket ball-bat impact, whilst a finite element rigid body model was similarly developed for two bat geometries, with ball/bat impact simulations (Allen, Fauteux-Brault, James, & Curtis, 2014). Rigid body analysis has further been shown by Symes (2006) as an appropriate method of investigating bats (the rigid body) following object collision.…”

The aim of the current research project was to characterise the difference in the sweet spot of a standard and modified (bat with pre-stressed wooden inserts) cricket bat, as utilised by amateur batsmen facing amateur bowlers. The project was divided into three parts, experimental, analytical analysis and finite element modelling. An experimental bat and ball test apparatus was developed to measure the difference in performance of a cricket bat with and without modifications. The outcomes of this work showed that the addition of a specified insert in the sides of a cricket bat can significantly improve a cricket bat's performance. The potential to use this type of insert could be employed in any design of bat to improve its performance without any additional modifications to the profile of the existing layout.
