A Validation of Material, Design, and Physical Properties of Weightlifting Shoes Based on 3D Models
This research paper explores the enhancement of weightlifting shoe (WLS) performance through a unique combination of physical analysis (PHA) and finite element analysis (FEA). While FEA is extensively employed in diverse design fields, its application to optimizing weightlifting shoes remains unprecedented. WLS underwent comprehensive physical testing, including evaluations of energy absorption, density determination, abrasion resistance, slip resistance, and compression, with subsequent calculation of mean values. Utilizing Creo software, 3D models of WLS soles were created and imported into the ANSYS workbench for detailed analysis. This analysis encompasses the assessment of critical parameters like total deformation, directional deformation, von mises stress, and von mises strain. The outcomes of this study offer a promising framework for enhancing the quality, design, and performance of weightlifting shoes, potentially benefiting both athletes and manufacturers in the field.
