Abstract

A technique is described for determining injury tolerance levels of motor vehicle occupants restrained by seat belts. Detaild accident injury data from accidents involving seat belt wearers are correlated with resluts of tests using the OPAT dummy. Human injury tolerance levels are proposed for several parts of the body. These levels are applicable to readings from tests made using the OPAT dummy.
