Samenvatting
The requirements of current automotive testing demand more data than previously afforded by the Hybrid III and Part 572 anthropomorphic dummies. A series of multi- component transducers in an effort to provide more complete answers to complex questions of force measurement in controlled and uncontrolled impact testing have been developed. The specific areas for which multi- component sensors have been produced are: the base of the skull, the lower neck, the thoracic spine, the lumbar spine, the straight spine, the pelvis, the femur, and the lower leg.
