N2  - A detailed three-dimensional mathematical model describing the dynamic behavior of the human head and neck in automotive accidents is developed. The strategy is to proceed from a relatively simple model (the global model) for gaining insight into head-neck dynamics toward a complex model (the detailed model) providing the loads and deformations of the tissues of the neck. The models have been implemented in the integrated multibody/finite-element package MADYMO, version 5.1.1 of the TNO Crash Safety Research Centre.     <p>Language: en</p>
