Abstract

A force measuring dummy has been developed at the TRRL to assess the injury potential of vehicle structures when struck almost perpendicularly in the side. The work which has been done to date on the design and construction of this dummy, its preliminary calibration using real life accident data and its use to develop safer design of cars, is presented.
