Wilson, B.A.H. (author), Westerhof, T.A.T. (author), Philippens, M.M.G.M. (author)In recent conflicts, a major source of injury for military personnel are Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), which generate blast overpressure (BOP), fragments and heat. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) of dismounted soldiers are primarily tested for protection against bullets, fragments, heat and stabbing using accepted formal standards....conference paper 2021

Lubbers, L.A. (author), Philippens, M.M.G.M. (author), Weerheijm, J. (author)Mechanical metamaterials – man-made materials which derive their unusual properties from their structure rather than their composition (Bertoldi, 2017) – are able to prohibit the propagation of mechanical waves in a pre-defined frequency band, the so-called band gap (Hussein, 2014, Krushynska, 2017). Here we show how metamaterials that exhibit a...conference paper 2020

(author)Blast injuries are often caused by more than one mechanism, do not occur in isolation, and typically elicit a secondary multi-system response. Research efforts often do not separate blast injuries caused by blast waves from those caused by blunt force trauma and other mechanisms. 15 experts from nine different NATO nations developed in the HFM...conference paper 2019

(author)Blast injury is a very complex phenomenon and frequently results in multiple injuries. One method to investigate the consequences of blast injuries is with the use of living systems (animal models). The use of animals allows the examination and evaluation of injury mechanisms in a more controlled manner, allowing variables such as primary or...conference paper 2019

(author)Discussions at a NATO Health Factors and Medicine Symposium 207 (HFM-SYM-207) revealed the importance of a systematic approach to understanding blast injuries much like the well-established approach used to solve the classical toxicology problem where the aetiology of the injury requires an understanding of the dose, mechanism of delivery of the...conference paper 2019

Deck, C. (author), van Daelen, E.C.M. (author), Bourdet, N. (author), Philippens, M.M.G.M. (author), Willinger, R. (author)The objective of this research is to develop a method to assess the skull fracture and mild traumatic brain injury risk for so called Behind Armour Blunt Trauma (BABT) using a state of the art Finite Element (FE) model of the human head for which tolerance limits for these specific injury mechanisms are available. The back face deformation,...conference paper 2018

(author)The BIPED headform is specifically developed by Defence R&D Canada (DRDC) to assess the relative reduction of the risk of injury to the human brain (Blast Induced TBI: b-TBI), offered by combat helmets, from low-level shockwaves. These low level shockwaves may be encountered in theatre due to exposure to an improvised explosive devices or other...conference paper 2018

Philippens, M.M.G.M. (author)Head injury criteria commonly used for the assessment blunt impact protection are applied for combat helmet. Impact velocities and the expected injury severity are compared for operational conditions. The only proposed requirement applied until now is a maximum of 150 g for a guided headform drop tests. However this exceeds the concussion...conference paper 2018

Pintar, F.A. (author), Philippens, M.M.G.M. (author), Zhang, J. (author), Yoganandan, N. (author)The objective of the study was to obtain helmet-to-head contact forces from experiments, use a human head finite element model to determine regional responses, and compare outputs to skull fracture and brain injury thresholds. Tests were conducted using two types of helmets (A and B) fitted to a head-form. Seven load cells were used on the head...article 2013

van der Horst, M.J. (author), Philippens, M.M.G.M. (author), Paulissen, J.J.M. (author)As is the case for all armed forces, the Netherlands’ MoD requires new weapons and munitions to be qualified according to existing rules and regulations. However, to date no generally accepted qualification process for Non-Lethal Weapons (NLW) exists, and suitable test and assessment protocols for different types of NLW are needed. Even for the...conference paper 2011
