abstract="Pedestrian computer model validation currently relies on published data from cadaver tests, which are impact specific. Both the ethical and cost issues make large scale testing of various impact scenarios and body sizes unfeasible. This study focuses on modeling a real-world accident to determine how such a methodology can be used to further validate and improve current pedestrian human body models. A scaled version of the TNO 5th percentile female pedestrian model has been validated and applied to reconstruct a fatal accident using a detailed vehicle model. Further impact scenarios have been explored to allow the 'injury variation' based on stiffness and pedestrian position.<p />",
