Assessment of the sensitivity of thoracic injury criteria to subject-specific characteristics using human body models

Assessment of the sensitivity of thoracic injury criteria to subject-specific characteristics using human body models

Introduction: Chest deformation has been proposed as the best predictor of thoracic injury risk in frontal impacts. Finite Element Human Body Models (FE-HBM) can enhance the results obtained in physical crash tests with Anthropometric Test Devices (ATD) since they can be exposed to omnidirectional i...
