Here you will find soon more information about our new case study of the
Ergonomical Design of Compound Bows
used for hunting and target archery. This will be a further project in our area of "Innovative Sport and Training Equipment".
We are academically investigating the ergonomics and energy efficiency on a number of compound bows of different draw length and draw weights and simulate stresses, strains, dynamics, vibrations and shocks as well as catastrophical failure of such sophisticated sport equipment. A further focus will be given to the feasibility of arrow speeds beyond 400 feet per second.
A further objective is the vibration control / reduction of the compound bow's riser using finite element analysis.
