Requirements

  • The research objectives described in this Statement of Work will expand NHTSA’s and the public’s understanding of human injury biomechanics and tolerance, performance of anthropomorphic test devices (ATDs) and computational ATD and human models through virtual testing, and human response to crash loading using a combination of experimental, computational, and analytical methods. The data generated in these studies will provide the impact biomechanics and automobile safety community with response requirements and design parameters for the development of advanced ATDs and virtual testing models, injury criteria, and restraint system performance requirements. Results of work conducted under this contract will facilitate the reduction of automobile crash injuries and fatalities.
