Personal protection equipment (PPE) for the head can include examples like helmets and hard hats (headgear). Often, these headgear are tested in lab experiments to determine whether the headgear provides adequate protection to the human wearing them. These lab experiments can simulate impact to the head, bullet strikes, and blasts. Therefore, these lab methods are important in assessing headgear in all segments of society including the general population that works in industry or engages in sport, and the law enforcement and defense sectors that are exposed to bullets and explosions during their daily duties.The research funded by this Alliance Grant focuses on advancing a realistic model of the human head that can be used in lab assessments of headgear. Building upon a model of the human head developed for blast tests, that was originally developed by Defense Research and Development Canada, this research focuses on advancing the design of the model head for applications in blunt impact such that it reveals realistic assessment of military head PPE.

头部的个人防护装备(PPE)可以包括头盔和安全帽(头盔)等。通常，这些头盔会在实验室实验中进行测试，以确定头盔是否为佩戴它们的人提供了足够的保护。这些实验室实验可以模拟头部撞击、子弹击中和爆炸。因此，这些实验室方法在评估社会各阶层的头盔方面非常重要，包括在工业或从事体育运动的普通民众，以及在日常工作中暴露于子弹和爆炸的执法和国防部门。由该联盟拨款资助的研究专注于推进一种现实的人头模型，可以用于头盔的实验室评估。基于最初由加拿大国防研究和发展局开发的用于爆炸试验的人头模型，本研究重点推进用于钝器撞击的模型头的设计，以揭示对军事头PPE的现实评估。
