Human body Finite element models have the potential to provide significant insight into the
paediatric response to impact. However, child models are by far less common and less …

Thoracic injury in the paediatric population is a relatively common cause of severe injury
and has an accompanying high mortality rate. However, no anatomically accurate, complex …

When the Hybrid III 10-year old (HIII-10C) anthropomorphic test device (ATD) was adopted
into Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 49 Part 572 as the best available tool for evaluating …

Traffic injuries have become a major health-related issue to school-aged children. To study
this type of injury with numerical simulations, a finite element model was developed to …

The Abdominal Pressure Twin Sensors (APTS) for Q3 and Q6 dummies are composed of
soft polyurethane bladders filled with fluid and equipped with pressure sensors. Implanted …

To help predict the injury responses of child pedestrians and occupants in traffic incidents,
finite element (FE) modeling has become a common research tool. Until now, there was no …

Résumé Chest deflection could not be correlated with thoracic injury risk in past accident
reconstructions with Q3 and Q6 dummies. The tendency of the diagonal belt to slide towards …

This paper describes the development of child body finite element (FE) models and possible
head injury mechanisms in vehicle-to-pedestrian collisions, while comparing the impact …

Abstract Objectives Improved Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) approaches will largely
benefit the children in need. The constant peak displacement and constant peak force …

The objective of this study was to develop injury risk functions for the Large Omni-directional
Child (LODC) ATD abdomen and thorax. Paediatric specimen biomechanical data were …
