Abstract

A recent developed laminated windscreen offers amazing improvement in safety performance compared to conventional laminated windshield by energy-controlled breakout at the fixed edge, working at an impact speed of more than 20 mph. The performance of the head impact against the windscreen as well as the energy reaction between the head and the screen were studied and the results are given.
