Abstract

Although the vehicle and the accident surroundings can be realistically represented, the human victim of the accident must be simulated. This is usually performed by means of anthropometrical dummies. The validity of the conclusions reached and the applicability of the simulation depend above all on the simulation ability of the dummy. In this study, pedestrian accidents are used to investigate just simulation suitability.
