| Summary: | In this era of technology, the present day game of soccer is the implication of many developments in term of the physical evolution of players, playing rules and regulation, and the design as well as the manufacture of playing equipment has receive attention among famous manufacturers. During the typical soccer match, the ball may be kicked as many as 2000 times, with linear velocities between 25 to 30 m/s, spin rates of 5 to 600 rpm and linear acceleration values of 8 m/s (T. Asami et al, 1998). Advances in material science have driven the technological development of soccer balls. In the 19 century the introduction of vulcanized rubber was the most important discovery to enable sports ball development (L. Cordingley et al, 2002). Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) which is the soccer world governing body has introduced the Denomations program in 1996 to ensure the global consistency of soccer ball used in elite competition. The design, development and innovation of soccer ball are crucial activities in order to gain competitive advantages within the market. Regardless of the market interest, the researchers aim to improve sport performance and to reduce injuries. In this project, the simulation done using by the finite element software named ABAQUS. ABAQUS software is a suite of mutual application for finite element analysis. It provides a powerful and unified system for engineering analysis and digital prototyping in support of design and manufacturing. The early study is between the soccer ball and the rigid plate. The effects of velocity and materials properties between soccer ball and the rigid plate were investigated. The peak impact force will be investigated using the equation stated by referring to theMjournal. The construction of the finite element (FE) model was design in 3D between a soccer ball and a rigid plate. To determine the accuracy of present simulation, the results were compared with experimental test of soccer ball. There is also the validation with the case study from establish journal by (D. S. Price et al, 2006). |
