Cycling helmets play a crucial role in protecting against head injuries, however, their
effectiveness in mitigating all types of head injury is limited, particularly traumatic brain …

Low-to moderate-speed motor vehicle collisions are common roadway occurrences that are
generally associated with low rates of reported injury. While such complaints are generally …

The objective of this study was to obtain head and cervical spine responses of post mortem
human subjects (PMHS) in moderate speed rear impacts while positioned in production …

In recent post-mortem human subjects (PMHS) studies in a high-speed rear-facing frontal
impact (HSRFFI), the PMHS sustained multiple rib fractures. The seatback structure and …

Most anthropomorphic test devices possess both an upper neck and a lower neck load cell
to measure the risk of neck injury in crash simulations. For post‐mortem human subject …

In a previous study, a comparison of cervical spine kinematics between a current rear impact
dummy, BioRID II, and post mortem human subjects (PMHS) was made by subjecting them …

Spine degeneration is a normal aging process. It may lead to stenotic spines that may have
implications for pain and quality of life. The diagnosis is based on clinical symptomatology …

Head and neck responses of anthropomorphic test devices and computational human body
models should be validated in different impact modes, eg, frontal, oblique, side, and twist …

Numerous finite element models of the cervical spine have been developed to study the
biomechanics of the osteoligamentous column such as range of motion and vertebral stress; …

It is often reported that the physiological rotational limits of adjacent vertebrae in the cervical
spine are exceeded in rear-end accidents which play a significant role in Whiplash …
