Abstract
This study aims to investigate the impact effect of varied thickness of the hitting surface and different shapes of the golf club head. The researcher integrated the computer-aided design software Pro/ENGINEER and finite element analysis software LS-DYNA to do the club head design and impact analysis.
The researcher had developed five different shapes and eight different thicknesses of hitting surface of the club head model to compare the ball speed and the sweet spot of the hitting surface. He found that ball speed had increased as the hitting surface is enlarged, both laterally and vertically. He also found that thicker center surface and decreasing thickness to the rim of the thickness of the hitting surface is a better design club head. Finally, he made suggestions about the scientific information of the shape and the surface thickness of the golf club head for the designer to develop a suitable club head.
