Abstract
The aim of the research presented in this poster was to perform an anatomic study of the seated position in order to reply, in particular, to various questions raised in industry as how to predict the threshold of the main injuries that can be encountered in car accidents. It also produces a basis for further injury mechanism models. This methodology is based on obtaining reference serial sections from an entire subject frozen in the driving position, as well as on computerised three-dimensional (3D) visualisation a1lowing the validation of the anatomic analysis. This technology was used in the framework of the HUMOS (Human Model for Safety) European project.
