Keywords: Long pile synthetic turf; viscoelastic model; multi-intensity multi-area impact test; shock attenuation 1. Introduction Long pile synthetic turf has become a popular material for various sports facilities, e.g. for football, baseball, rugby and cricket fields. Long pile synthetic turf consists of long yarns planted in the base

Abstract. AbstractThe purpose of this study is to investigate the shock attenuation properties of long pile synthetic turf. To investigate these properties using a modeling and simulation method, an appropriate model based on reliable data and a precise identification method is required.

Engineering. The present study was designed to illustrate shock attenuation characteristics of natural turf as a target property for long pile artificial turf 3-g turf and to compare the property with that of existing 3-g turf systems. A recently proposed new high loading test was conducted to detect the initial state of shock attenuation property of natural turfs with two different bases sod and sand base

CONCLUSION:The current investigation succeeded in obtaining shock attenuation property of natural turf and demonstrating clear differences in the characteristics between natural turf and long pile artificial turf. Natural turf was characterized by a higher impact damping and a larger hysteresis with plastic surface deformation.

Jan 01, 2015· Although the MRSE values of long pile synthetic turf are relatively higher than that of urethane material which is commonly used for track and field, the results of identification could be used for distinguishing the differences between 3 types of long pile synthetic turf. 3.5. Shock attenuation properties calculated by dropping mass-spring model in various impact situations In various impact

With the rise in shock pad usage in synthetic turf sports field systems in North America, the Synthetic Turf Council STC, the world’s largest organization dedicated solely to the synthetic turf industry, released the new STC Performance and Quality Guidelines for Shock Pads.

Aug 27, 2020· Due to the different types of synthetic turf on the market, ranging from long pile typically 1.5 inches to 2.5 inches infilled surfaces that are typically used for football, soccer and rugby, to non-filled short pile surfaces typically 0.5 inches used for field hockey, there are many different shock pads, with differing performance...

Moreover, synthetic turf manufacturers are noting a desire by some facility owners to reduce the amount of infill and subsequent infill "splash" by lowering the height of the fiber pile and increasing the density of the pile itself. Adding a shock pad, some of which also provide basic drainage properties, helps make up for the infill reduction.

Jan 01, 2012· The normal test specimen is one of the certified long pile synthetic turf by FIFA. Table 1. Specification of the infill material in each sample Type of long pile synthetic turf Length of yarn mm Bottom Layer 5 mm Sand mm Top Layer 39 mm Volume Ratio of Sand : Rubber chip Normal 63 5 1 : 1 Soft 63 5 1 : 2 Hard 63 5 2 : 1 3. Method 3.1.

synthetic turf carpets had short piles and little or no infill, the need for shockpads was considered to have been diminished or removed with the introduction of the long pile filled third generation of synthetic turf surfaces in the late 1990s. During the initial decade of use most third generation synthetic turf surfaces relied on the granulated

Make certain that the data is from a reliable entity. Be aware that there could be biased information from organizations aligned with synthetic turf and from those that support natural grass. Gmax Testing. Gmax testing, also known as impact testing, measures the shock- attenuation performance of synthetic turf and natural turfgrass athletic fields.

Shock pads are the ultimate way to add safety and resilience to the artificial grass surface. In sports industry, shock pads are often referred as an "insurance policy." According to FIFA-endorsed regulations, the shock-attenuation testing or G-Max is recommended for every sports field.

Shock attenuation pads may be installed in your synthetic turf system to increase levels of protection and consistent playability to the surface of your field. Typically, if well maintained, pads can last more than one turf life cycle. Pads vary in many areas such as

Shock attenuation pads offer an added level of protection and consistent playability to the playing surface and are designed to contribute to a safe g-max level throughout a synthetic turf field’s life. Roll out or panel systems are relatively economical and offer ease of installation.

B. The field might be used when frozen, as long as it is not slippery and footing is adequate; however, care should be taken as the fibers will be brittle and more subject to damage and shock attenuation properties of the playing surface will be reduced. C. Dry and powdery snow can be swept from the field using a rotary brush and/or a snow blower.

May 25, 2017· Synthetic Turf Athletic Fields built using AirField Systems AirDrain consistently outperform fields built over stone, concrete or asphalt, by reducing the Gmax and shock attenuation an average of 18.9% and 14.7%, and helps keep it there, for the life of the field.

The purpose of this study is to propose the mathematical model for long pile synthetic turf which can be used for evaluating the shock attenuation properties and to investigate the shock...

The turf system shall be IPEMA Certified and 100% wheelchair accessible ASTM F 1951 in the field. The turf system shall drain up to 130 inches per hour ASTM F 1551, excluding the crushed stone base. The system’s shock attenuation shall have a G-max value of less than 200 and a Head Injury Criteria HIC less than 1,000 ASTM F 1292.
