GREEN'S FUNCTION OF RADIAL DISPLACEMENT IN A CIRCULAR DISC DUE TO UNIT NORMAL AND TANGENTIAL LOADS

Abstract

The geometry of motion of the head, trunk and appendages wa established for one hundred male subjects restrained by a safety belt during forward and side dynamic loadings. Lethal structures of present aircraft seating and cockpit arrangements are revealed by correlating crash injuries with these kinematic data. In addition an analysis of the forces created by body kinematics during forward deceleration sheds new light on seat anchorage problems. (Author)
