Head protection and injury reduction are be the primary goal of motorcycle helmets. Safety standards are in place to enforce an increasing level of protection to greatly reduce injuries and fatalities in motorcycle accidents. But these days people are becoming more fashion conscious and proud in wearing a comfortable safety apparel adopting the latest technology. This is why HyperWorks is the preferred solution to quickly respond to rapidly changing trends of fashion or for the most demanding safety and aerodynamic evaluation that set you apart from your competition.

Engineering Consulting
Region Europe Altair ProductDesign is a global multi-disciplinary development consultancy of more than 500 designers, engineers, scientists and creative thinkers. Combining the HyperWorks suite with our expertise in product development and process automation allows us to significantly shorten our clients traditional design cycle and deliver innovative engineering solution. For example different analysis can be easily setup up by using a wide range of speeds and direction for the anvil during the impact testing. Different helmet sizes or head form shapes could be interchanged and so can the anvil geometry used. This leaves time to explore additional scenarios that even if not required by the regulation could identify areas of improvement and increase performance particularly for helmets used in competition. The evaluation of the protective performance of a new helmet is complicated by the growing number of helmets safety standards in place in the world. Adopting virtual prototyping will reduce time and costs, offering more opportunities to design exploration and to judge the effectiveness of a motorcycle helmet in an accident.
