Joint Army/Navy Air Crew Impact Injury Prevention Program
Abstract
This annual report covers the mathematical analysis and computer- related effort supplied by the originator in support of the Joint Army/Navy Air Crew Impact Injury Prevention Program. The mathematical analysis, coding and debugging were performed for the following programs connected with the Horizontal Accelerator data processing effort; 3-D Transformation Program, X-Ray Anthropometry Program, Conversion/Scaling Program, Dynamic Response Study; Effect of Onset and Duration, Signal Vector Alignment Program, Horizontal Sled Test Program, Principal Component Analysis - Eigenvalue/vector Program, Filter Routine for Horizontal sled Accelerometer Data, Special Plot Project - 'Human- Beam, ' Model of Neck and Head Program 'MONAH', Sorting and Information Retrieval Program, Hinge Point Determination for Gy runs, and other smaller programs and studies. Sled Run Motion Picture Digitization was completed for 633 full runs on humans. Work was also done to simulate the effects of different types of crashes on living human bodies, with computer studies of actual crashes being performed.
