Abstract

Drop impact testing of head protection helmets has been based on different methods in the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) and International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standards. Since it would be desirable to unite these two into one international standard, work was initiated to find out whether the corresponding test methods could be considered equivalent and interchangeable for helmet certification.
