TY  - CHAP
AB  - This chapter presents and discusses the use of physical surrogates for the assessment of human injury. The focus is on anthropomorphic test devices (ATDs), otherwise known as dummies. These have been developed in order to evaluate occupant protection in response to impact loading. They are used extensively in the automotive industry to quantify occupant safety and the defence industry for military vehicle assessment. Their main design objective is to be robust and repeatable. Most ATDs do not assess failure directly; instead, they are heavily instrumented with transducers which record data during testing; these data are then analysed to determine the injury risk in the human.
