Method of analysis for kinetic properties of golf club head and golf club therefor
First Claim
1. A method of analysis of the kinetic properties of a golf club head, comprising the steps of:
- preparing a model of a golf club head represented by a set of elements including a tetrahedral solid element on a computer;
providing nodes at the vertexes and on at least one side of the tetrahedral solid element between adjacent ones of the vertexes; and
computing the kinetic properties of the golf club head by the finite element method in which the elements and nodes of the model are used and the nodes are set as output points of computation,wherein, in at least some of the tetrahedral solid elements, the number of nodes provided per one element is not fewer than ten.

Abstract
The accuracy or computation speed of analysis of a club head using the finite element method is improved. In a method of analysis of a golf club head, a model of the golf club head represented by a set of elements including tetrahedral solid elements 30 is prepared on a computer, nodes 32 are provided at the vertexes and on at least one side of the tetrahedral solid element, and the kinetic properties of the golf club head are computed by the finite element method in which the elements and nodes of the model are used and the nodes are made output points of computation. At this time, in at least some of the tetrahedral solid elements, the number of nodes provided per one element is made not fewer than ten.
