1. Head kinematics in car–pedestrian crashes: The influence of sliding, spine bending, elbow and shoulder impacts
Abstract : In vehicle–pedestrian crashes, head injuries account for an overwhelming percentage of all severe and fatal injuries. These injuries are caused by the linear acceleration and rotation of the head. To mitigate head injuries, tools such as Human Body Models (HBMs) are used in the development and evaluation of pedestrian safety systems. READ MORE

2. Evaluation of Morphed Human Body Models for Diverse Occupant Safety Analysis
Abstract : Female, obese, and elderly occupants are at increased risk of injury in vehicle accidents. Human Body Models (HBMs) are used to represent the human anatomy and to study injury mechanisms in mathematical crash test simulations. READ MORE

3. Evaluation of Shoulder-Complex Motion in Frontal and Oblique Impact Loadings - A Comparison between Frontal Impact Dummies and the Human Body
Abstract : Offset and angled frontal impacts represent a crash type that is more common than full-frontal collisions. Several studies have shown that over 70% of all frontal impacts are offset or oblique. READ MORE

4. A New Shoulder for the THOR Dummy Intended for Oblique Collisions
Abstract : Offset and oblique frontal car collisions represent a type of crash in which severe and fatal injuries frequently occur. This indicates the importance of having protective systems in vehicles for these types of collisions. READ MORE

5. Thoracic injuries in frontal car crashes: risk assessment using a finite element human body model
Abstract : Accident data show that there is a clear need to improve the protection to occupants’ thorax in frontal car crashes. For this purpose, models that can predict the risk of injuries and assess the occupant protection offered by different restraint systems are needed. READ MORE
