Human Tolerance to Impact Conditions as Related to Motor Vehicle Design
Description / Abstract:
This report reviews current1 quantitative data on
human tolerance levels without recommending specific limits. Data
developed on humans (including cadavers) are presented where
available; however, in many cases animal data are provided where no
suitable human results have been reported. This report confines
itself, as much as possible, to information of direct use to the
automotive designer and tester. Data of only academic interest are
largely omitted; therefore, J885 should not be considered as a
complete summary of all available biomechanical data.
Most of the data cited in this report applies to adult males since little information is available on women or children. The summary data provided in the tables should be considered in conjunction with the accompanying descriptive test. This material explains the manner in which the data were obtained and provides an insight as to their limitations.
Purpose - The purpose of this report is to assist the automotive safety designer and tester by providing them with quantitative data on the strength of the human body under impact loading conditions.
1. As of December, 1981. It is expected that this information report will be updated periodically.
