About the project

Methods

In my research, I have examined several key strategies found in nature, including sandwich structures, cellular foam structures, composite structures, sharp force penetration prevention strategies, and energy dissipation strategies. I have analyzed various organisms, such as the ironclad beetle, woodpecker, and shrimp, which have evolved unique adaptations to protect against impact damage.

As a researcher with a passion for exploring nature's incredible designs, I have conducted a comprehensive review investigating biological strategies for impact protection. In this study, I delve into the potential applications of these strategies in helmet design to reduce traumatic brain injuries. My work emphasizes the importance of learning from nature to improve engineering solutions.

Bioinspired Protection

Impact

By incorporating nature-inspired designs into helmet technology, I aim to significantly reduce traumatic brain injuries. My work suggests that effective energy dissipation and better damping can be achieved through the integration of biological strategies into helmet design, leading to more effective protective devices.
