Data on the impact of objects with different shapes, masses, and impact velocities on a dummy head.

ABSTRACT: In this article, a data generated from impacts of objects with different shapes, masses, and impact velocities on a developed dummy head. The mass considered was in the range of 0.3-0.5 kg while the shapes considered were cube, wedge, and cylinder. The impact velocities levels were in the range of 1-3 m/s. A total of 144 experiments were conducted and the corresponding videos and raw data were analyzed for impact velocity, peak head linear acceleration, 3 ms criterion, and the Head Injury Criterion (HIC). This dataset includes the raw acceleration data and a summary of the overall processed data. The data is available on Harvard Dataverse: https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/AVC8GG.
