Validation of pedestrian impactor testing upon hybrid vehicle front end profile

A large number of pedestrians are killed in traffic accidents each year and majority of these fatalities are caused by head injuries and leading to permanent damage. This paper presents the development of a hybrid vehicle front end profile and its validation against head and leg impactors. The ve...
