Abstract

In a previous experimental study a comparison was made between a 1978 Pontiac Lemans car front with a standard bumper and the same front with a more compliant bumper developed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The modified, more compliant bumper in this test series caused equally serious damage to the knee as did the slightly stiffer bumper in the previous series.
