IUPUI students create biologically inspired designs that could be used to create a safer football helmet. They considered cellular helmet liners are ideal for impact energy absorption, as their structures can mimic the excellent absorbing capabilities of energy protective biological structures. These students took some of nature’s hardest surfaces — surfaces that could be translated to helmet design — and re-created them in a way that can be simulated in engineering software.
