Summary:

As there are not contemporary test data assessing the actual neck loads of pediatric humans using CRS in high-speed impacts, computer models of pediatric occupants can be considered an alternative method to complement dummy measurements. Thus, the goal of this paper is to assess the mechanical response of the neck of the PIPER pediatric human body model (HBM) in tension and flexion at the light of existing experimental data


Spanish layman's summary:

Estudio de la biofidelidad de la región cervical del modelo humano pediátrico PIPER utilizando datos experimentales.


English layman's summary:

Keywords: Piper model, Neck injuries, Neck flexion, Neck tensile force
