MECHANICAL AND BIOMECHANICAL ENGINEERING SOLUTIONS
WHAT WE DO
Dominca solves problems related to impacts, shock waves, and high strain-rate phenomena with the best analytical, computational, and experimental techniques.
We frequently tackle materials that are non-linear and inhomogeneous, as well as strain-rate-sensitive (frequency) and temperature-sensitive. Such materials present complex engineering challenges, requiring advanced theory and intricate simulation.

MITIGATION PADS
Pads to protect athletes from high-speed impact and blunt trauma.
WHY DOMINCA
We aim for client understanding — providing not only the results our clients want, but also taking the time to explain the relevant theory, methodology, and assumptions. This enables our clients to understand the why’s and how’s behind the results, and thereby implement our results more effectively. Our client-centered approach enhances productivity and success.
