4.d. Other Whiplash Injury Criteria work

Lex van Rooij (LvR) indicated that TNO performed a large study with validated numerical models of car seats, BioRID II and Active Human Models that could be beneficial to this group once compared against real-world injury data. Since the last step is currently being performed, no scientific findings from this project could be presented. As such, this ongoing work was not presented.

LvR did however show results from an analysis on Euro NCAP test results from 2010 and 2011. A total of 38 anonymous test results on NIC and upper neck Fx shear force and the correlation between the two was shown. The analysis showed no correlation between NIC and Fx, indicating that Fx is a criterion that is not captured with just using NIC. The presentation was shared with the group (WCWID-01-07).
