Despite of the use of homologated Child Restraint Systems, 2,321 children were killed on European roads in 2007. This social and economical major issue is explained by the lack of biomechanical knowledge on injury mechanisms and associated physical parameters, specifically for children. The present project was supported by the GDR “Biomécanique des chocs“ (CNRS/INRETS/GIE PSA Renault) and funded by the French National Research Agency. The aim of this study is to improve the biomechanical knowledge of the children trunk. The dynamic response of the trunk is essential because it is the main segment used for the whole body restraint when a car crash occurs. In order to improve the reliability of children's models, subject-specific inertial par...
