Abstract

At the 30th Stapp Conference an analysis was presented of human volunteer head-neck response in omni-directional impact tests. It was shown that the relative head motion can be described by a simple two pivot analog system. The present study extends this analysis to post-mortem human subject (PMHS) tests. It is concluded that the centre of gravity trajectories for the PMHS and volunteer tests are similar for both impact levels.
