Neck moment characterization of restrained child occupant at realistic nontest standard higher impact speed of 32.2 km/h
The effects of bullet vehicle crash impact angle, child restraint system design, and restraint harness slack at side impact speed of 32.2 km/h (20mph) on moments sustained at the neck by a three-year-old child are investigated. Mathematical models are built using the response surface method based...

Summary: | The effects of bullet vehicle crash impact angle, child restraint system design, and restraint harness slack at side impact speed of
32.2 km/h (20mph) on moments sustained at the neck by a three-year-old child are investigated. Mathematical models are built
using the response surface method based on simulation results whereby good fitness is achieved. The singular and cross interactive
effect of each predictor on the neck moment are analyzed. The number of significant parameters affecting the neck moment is
shown to be the largest for wide impact angles ( |
