Samenvatting
The development of a useful device to measure trauma to thehuman forehead and lacerative damage to the soft tissue duringimpact tests of automotive components has been guided by integoals ased upon the most current knowledge of the varioustypes of trauma which can be experienced. As a result, we havedeveloped an experimental instrument capable of making compa-risons of lacerative damage and simulating frontal bone tole-rance during small area impacts.
