Analysis of Head and Neck Dynamic Response of the U.S. Adult Military Population.

Abstract

Human subject data collected in the program of impact acceleration tests being conducted at the Naval Biodynamics Laboratory were analyzed to investigate the relationships between dynamic head/neck response and biomechanical properties of the neck. Study of these data with head/neck motion simulation has yielded important information pertinent to eventual construction of improved anthropmorphic dummies and has helped to improve the predictive capabilities of mathematical models.
