TY - JOUR PY - 1998// TI - Modeling Pediatric Kinematics JO - Annual proceedings of the Association for the Advancement of Automotive Medicine A1 - Wismans, Jac A1 - van Ratingen, Michiel R. SP - 137 EP - 164 VL - 42 IS - N2 - In the field of pediatric biomechanics, crash dummy and numerical model development suffers from too limited human subject data to directly establish response and injury values. In order to create child crash dummies and numerical models it is necessary to combine the results from real-world accident and reconstruction data, scaled adult data and data from animal testing with limited child volunteer data. This paper presents the functional and biomechanical targets for child crash dummies and numerical models.
