Tank Automotive Research, Development and Engineering Center (TARDEC) conducted a comprehensive analysis of data collected during the evaluation of head and neck impact during injurious and non-injurious loading. This evaluation included impact velocity, helmet to roof clearance, and neck angle using a fully instrumented Hybrid III head and neck assembly. The results of this effort were compared against post mortem human subject (PMHS) data from similar testing conducted in conjunction with the Warrior Injury Assessment Manikin (WIAMan) program. The results identified the most severe helmet to roof clearance and neck angles. TARDEC used this knowledge as the foundation for continued research into head and neck impact injury mitigation through the use of passive technology and interior vehicle design.
坦克汽车研究、开发与工程中心(TARDEC)对在有害和无害载荷下头部和颈部撞击评估期间收集的数据进行了全面分析。该评估包括使用完全仪器化的Hybrid III头部和颈部组件的撞击速度、头盔与车顶间隙以及颈部角度。将这项工作的结果与来自与勇士损伤评估人体模型(WIAMan)计划联合进行的类似测试的死后人体受试者(PMHS)数据进行了比较。结果确定了最严重的头盔与车顶间隙和颈部角度。TARDEC将这一知识作为通过使用被动技术和车辆内部设计继续研究减轻头部和颈部撞击损伤的基础。
