Abstract:This study consists of the development of a hair clipper comb finite element (FE) model, impact test analysis on the FE model, fabrication of the product using commercially available materials, followed by physical impact testing of the comb. Moreover, microscopic examination of the combs was performed to analyze the quality of the product and correlate the defects with the failure mechanism. The 3D model of comb for a Philips hair clipper was developed using ONSHAPE software, followed by a design study to und… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
