Players sustain concussions which can not only bench them, but leave life-long brain damage from the accelerations experienced during impact. As part of the project to improve the helmet, simulations were used to test material properties of different components of football helmets, such as hard foams, soft foams, and the shell. Data from the simulations were analyzed with performance metrics provided by the NFL.","og_url":"https:\/\/www.hajim.rochester.edu\/senior-design-day\/nfl-helmet-challenge\/","og_site_name":"Senior Design Day","article_published_time":"2020-04-23T02:32:36+00:00","article_modified_time":"2020-04-30T20:58:12+00:00","og_image":[{"url":"https:\/\/www.hajim.rochester.edu\/senior-design-day\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/53-helmet_model.png","width":473,"height":445,"type":"image\/png"}],"author":"admin","twitter_card":"summary_large_image","twitter_misc":{"Written by":"admin","Est. reading time":"1 minute"},"schema":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Article","@id":"https:\/\/www.hajim.rochester.edu\/senior-design-day\/nfl-helmet-challenge\/#article","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.hajim.rochester.edu\/senior-design-day\/nfl-helmet-challenge\/"},"author":{"name":"admin","@id":"https:\/\/www.hajim.rochester.edu\/senior-design-day\/#\/schema\/person\/351018fbcf84ed8cac6d8072ba5b347c"},"headline":"NFL Helmet Challenge","datePublished":"2020-04-23T02:32:36+00:00","dateModified":"2020-04-30T20:58:12+00:00","mainEntityOfPage":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.hajim.rochester.edu\/senior-design-day\/nfl-helmet-challenge\/"},"wordCount":105,"commentCount":0,"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.hajim.rochester.edu\/senior-design-day\/nfl-helmet-challenge\/#primaryimage"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/www.hajim.rochester.edu\/senior-design-day\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/53-helmet_model.png","articleSection":["Global Health Archive","Manufacturing Archive","Material Science Archive","ME Archive","Simulation Archive","Sports and Entertainment Archive"],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https:\/\/www.hajim.rochester.edu\/senior-design-day\/nfl-helmet-challenge\/","url":"https:\/\/www.hajim.rochester.edu\/senior-design-day\/nfl-helmet-challenge\/","name":"NFL Helmet Challenge -
