Objectives of the testing were to compare constant velocity impacts to the shoulder and thorax, compare results to previously published PMHS testing, and examine chest deflections. Results indicated that the peak impact force and peak chest lateral deformation for the WorldSID 50th tend to increase when the impact location moves from shoulder to mid-thorax, while the PMHS testing shows the opposite trend for peak force but similar results for deflection. Future research will include an investigation into deflection differences, differences in load/deflection trends, and spine kinematics/rib cage deformation. |
