Abstract

A mechanical neck which simulates human head motion in the automotive crash environment is described. The present design simulates head motion in the sagittal plane by means of a two pivot model. The proposed method of validation is the matching of displacement-velocity response of the head as predicted by a two degree-of-freedom computer simulation with existing human data.
