Hoof accelerations and ground reaction forces of Thoroughbred racehorses measured on dirt, synthetic, and turf track surfaces.

29 Sep 2009 OBJECTIVE: To compare hoof acceleration and ground reaction force (GRF) data among dirt, synthetic, and turf surfaces in Thoroughbred racehorses. ANIMALS: 3 healthy Thoroughbred racehorses. PROCEDURES: Forelimb hoof accelerations and GRFs were ... Read more...

Importance of physical properties of the human head on head-neck injury metrics.

29 Sep 2009 OBJECTIVES: To demonstrate the importance of using specimen-specific head physical properties in head-neck dynamics. METHODS: Eight postmortem human subjects were subjected to side impact. A 9-axis accelerometer package was used to obtain head ... Read more...

Child safety in vehicles: validation of a mathematical model and development of restraint system design guidelines for 3-year-olds through mathematical simulations.

29 Sep 2009 OBJECTIVE: The objectives of this study are to validate a mathematical simulation model of the Q3 ATD in an integrated forward-facing booster-type restraint in the rear seat and to evaluate restraint parameters to further develop design guidelines ... Read more...
