Abstract

For twenty years the dynamic test protocol for automotive safety research has been to use an anthropomorphic dummy in sled and crash test simulations. For the past four years, a computer test protocol is created and used to model real world accidents and determine injury reduction from potential design modifications without some of the limitations and cost of the physical hardware and test procedure. The computer test protocol is described.
