Finite Element Analysis on Badminton Racket Design Parameters

Abstract

This chapter explains in greater detail on the development of generating the finite element model for badminton racket using ABAQUS (Explicit). Among the details involved material selections, measurement and important boundary conditions of the finite element models were presented. Several relevant theories behind the analysis of the badminton racket’s performance, such as the equation of coefficient of restitution, COR in badminton racket were explained. Other than that, the important information about the experimental procedures and apparatus setup were explained in detail. The experimental analysis is crucial since the results will be used to validate the finite element model.
