Tolerance of the human leg and thigh in dynamic latero-medial bending
Jason R. Kerrigan,D C Drinkwater,Check Y. Kam,Drew B. Murphy,B.J. Ivarsson,Jeff R. Crandall,J Patrie +6 more
TL;DR: The goal of the current study was to perform dynamic bending experiments on legs and thighs from post mortem human surrogates and combine the failure data with that of previous applicable studies to perform an injury risk analysis.
Kinematic Corridors for PMHS Tested in Full-Scale Pedestrian Impact Tests
Jason R. Kerrigan,Drew B. Murphy,D. Chris Drinkwater,Check Y. Kam,Dipan Bose,Jeffrey Richard Crandall +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed bio-fidelity corridors for the kinematic response of post-mortem human surrogates tested in full-scale pedestrian impact tests using a late-model small sedan with an impact velocity of 40 km/h.
Kinematic comparison of the Polar-II and PMHS in pedestrian impact tests with a sport-utility vehicle
Jason R. Kerrigan,Check Y. Kam,Chris Drinkwater,Drew B. Murphy,Dipan Bose,Johan Ivarsson,Jeffrey Richard Crandall +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the kinematic response of post-mortem human surrogates (PMHS) tested in full-scale pedestrian impact tests was compared with the response of the Polar-II dummy.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Design of a Full-Scale Impact System for Analysis of Vehicle Pedestrian Collisions
Check Y. Kam,Jason R. Kerrigan,Mark Meissner,C. Drinkwater,Drew B. Murphy,Jim Bolton,Carlos Arregui,Robert G. Kendall,J. Ivarsson,Jeffrey Richard Crandall,Bing Deng,J T Wang,C. Kerkeling,W. Hahn +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a full-scale pedestrian impact test plan and experimental design that will be used to perform post mortem human surrogates (PMHS) tests to validate human pedestrian models.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Correlation of strain and loads measured in the long bones with observed kinematics of the lower limb during vehicle-pedestrian impacts.
Costin D. Untaroiu,Jason R. Kerrigan,Check Y. Kam,Jeffrey Richard Crandall,Kunio Yamazaki,Keisuke Fukuyama,Koichi Kamiji,Tsuyoshi Yasuki,James R. Funk +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors determine the loads in the long bones of the lower extremities during vehicle-pedestrian impact tests, and correlate load data with observed kinematics in an effort to understand how stature and vehicle shape influence pedestrian response.
