Biomechanical Responses of Human Surrogates under Various Frontal Loading Conditions with an Emphasis on Thoracic Response and Injury Tolerance
… predict injury. Evaluating the biomechanical response, injury mechanisms, and injury threshold of the thorax are particularly important because the thorax is one of the most frequently injured body regions in MVCs. Furthermore, sustaining a severe thoracic injury in an MVC significantly …

A Biomechanical Assessment Of Canine Body Armor
… canines, 2) the evaluation of the biomechanical response of the canine related to a behind armor blunt impact, 3) the identification of an injury criterion that will best predict canine thoracic injury as a result of behind armor blunt trauma, 4) correlation of the behind armor blunt trauma …

Biomechanical Responses of Small Female Human Surrogates during Frontal Sled Tests using a Realistic Vehicle Environment
… compared to post-mortem human surrogate (PMHS) responses using a realistic, driver-seat environment to assess biofidelity or ability to predict injury. Therefore, the objective of this study was to compare the responses of the two ATDs and small female PMHS in matched frontal sled tests …

Investigating the Thoracic Biomechanical Responses of Rear Seated 50th Percentile Male Anthropomorphic Test Devices and Post Mortem Human Surrogates During Frontal Motor Vehicle Collisions
… when seated in the front seat. To validate the response and injury risk predictions of existing frontal ATDs in the rear seat it is necessary to generate new biomechanical data in the rear seat of modern vehicles. The purpose of this work is to quantify the biomechanical responses of two frontal …
