- Kinematic and Injury Response of Reclined PMHS in Frontal ImpactsRachel Richardson, John-Paul Donlon, Mohan Jayathirtha, Jason L. Forman, Greg Shaw, Bronislaw Gepner, and Jason R. Kerrigan — University of Virginia Center for Applied Biomechanics Martin Östling, Krystoffer Mroz, and Bengt Pipkorn — Autoliv Development AB Abstract Frontal impacts with reclined occupants are rare but severe, and they are anticipated…
- Variations in User Implementation of the CORA Rating MetricDevon L. Albert — Center for Injury Biomechanics, Department of Biomedical Engineering and Mechanics, Virginia Tech Abstract The CORA rating metric is frequently used in the field of injury biomechanics to compare the similarity of response time histories. However, subjectivity exists within the CORA metric in the form of user-customizable…
