The aim of this study was to assess the potential of various hardware dummies (Hybrid III and EuroSID II) and the numerical human model to study rollover situations. Significant differences were found between the kinematics of volunteers in comparison with both the Hybrid III and the EuroSID IIdummies. The numerical simulation with the Hybrid III model corresponds well to the measurement results with the hardware dummy, the simulation with human model shows different kinematics of the occupant which is closer to the one of the volunteers.
