Abstract

An in-depth review of previous reported research results concerning lap belt restraint dynamics, biomechanics, and field data effectiveness was performed in this study and the summarised results were analysed using basic kinematics and dynamic principles in an attempt to place in perspective the continuing controversy concerning the effectiveness of lap belt only restraints in automobiles.
