Submarining and Abdominal Injury for Rear-Seated Mid-Size Males during Frontal Crashes
… occupant protection for a mid-sized adult male. Submarining, in which the lap belt slips off of the pelvis and directly loads the abdomen, is of particular concern as a restraint-based injury mechanism of the abdomen. The objective of this study is to investigate submarining protection and …

Development of a Deflection Measurement System for the Hybrid III Six-Year Old Biofidelic Abdomen
… is needed for quantification of the degree of submarining and associated potential injury risk. A biofidelic abdomen for the Hybrid III 6-year-old dummy is being developed by the Ford Motor Company. A practical measurement system for the biofidelic abdominal insert has been developed and …

Protection of Rear Seat Occupants Using Finite Element Analysis
… injury mechanisms prevalent in the rear seats is submarining. Submarining likelihood and injury probability is difficult to predict with anthropomorphic test devices; however, human body models can help to improve injury prediction in these cases. To improve the injury prediction capability of …

Computational Investigation of Factors Influencing Vehicle Passengers' Safety Performance in Automated Driving Systems (ADS)
… revealed high injury risks, particularly due to submarining, where occupants slip under the seatbelt. Seat design features such as seat pan angle and restraint type influenced these risks. While advanced restraint systems reduced injuries, they did not fully prevent them, demonstrating a clear …
