How Do Bulletproof Helmets Work?

Bulletproof helmets absorb and disperse the energy of incoming bullets or fragments through advanced materials:

Energy Absorption: High-strength fibers (like Kevlar or UHMWPE) deform upon impact, slowing and trapping the projectile.

Layered Construction: Multiple material layers work together to distribute force, reducing trauma to the wearer.

Shell Geometry: The curved shape of the helmet helps deflect bullets and debris away from the head.
