    International audienceThe current manuscript reports on the development status of a software framework to scale (personalize) and position Human Body Models used in safety applications, i.e. the PIPER framework. The framework is both model and code agnostic and it was successfully used with Thums, GHBMC and the new PIPER scalable child model. Various transformation methods to scale or positioning were implemented in an interactive application. The software was released under the Open Source General Public License (GPL) version 2

    The aim of this report is to provide an overview of the final version of the PIPER framework and application. The software, along with its documentation, and not the report, constitutes the main part of the deliverable. The software and documentation were already distributed at the Final Workshop and online (under the Open Source license GPLv2 or later for the software, and the GNU FDL 1.3 license for the documentation). The documentation includes detailed descriptions of the framework principles, user interface, metadata, along with the modules and their parameters. It also includes application scenarios (called workflows). Information about the use of the modules is complemented by Tutorials that were developed as part of WP1 (online on the wiki) and explanatory videos were developed as part of WP4 (videos of the final workshop, now available on YouTube). The headers in the source code files (also available online) list the main contributors to the software. The report will therefore not provide details about information that is already available elsewhere but will only provide a very brief summary of the functionalities available. Some of the descriptions are excerpts of the manual

    Numerical Analysis of EOD Helmet under Blast Load Events Using Human Head Model

    Brain injury resulting from improved explosives devices (IEDs) is identified as a challenge for force securities to improve protection equipment. This paper focuses on the mechanical response of explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) helmet under different blast loadings. Limited published studies on this type of helmet are available in the scientific literature. The results obtained show the blast performance of the EOD helmet because a decrease in the maximum values in the measured damage parameters is found. Therefore, an EOD helmet minimizes the risks of the severity of injuries on the user showing a low probability of injury.The authors acknowledge the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness of Spain and FEDER program under the Project DPI2017-88166-R for the financial support of the work, and Marcos Rodríguez-Millán thanks the Spanish Ministry of Education, Culture and Sports for the professor’s mobility program José Castillejo’s 2018 grant (CAS18/00292)
