Estimation of an elite road cyclist mechanical power and energy cost wearing standard and aero helmets: an analytical procedure and numerical simulations approach

The aim of this study was to assess and compare by numerical simulations and analytical models the resistive forces, mechanical power and energy cost using two different types of road helmets (standard vs aero road helmet). An elite cyclist was scanned on the racing bicycle, wearing his competition...
