TOLERANCE AND RESPONSE OF THE KNEE-FEMUR-PELVIS COMPLEX TO AXIAL IMPACTS--IMPACT SLED TESTS
1980
A series of six whole-body sled tests were conducted with unembalmed cadavers to study knee impact phenomena under simulated car crash conditions. The purpose of the study was to investigate the occurrence of upper leg fracture types not seen in stationary subject knee impact tests (see UM-HSRI-76-33) using a moving-mass impactor technique, and to extend the pulse durations of the knee forces to times greater than 20 ms.
