Whole-Body Response to Pure Lateral Impact

SAE Technical Paper Series, 2010
The objective of the current study was to provide a comprehensive characterization of human biomechanical response to whole-body, lateral impact. Three approximately 50th-percentile adult male PMHS were subjected to right-side pure lateral impacts at 4.3 ± 0.1 m/s using a rigid wall mounted to a rail-mounted sled. Each subject was positioned on a rigid

Task-specific initial impact phase adjustments in lateral jumps and lateral landings

European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2011
Load-dependant adjustments in lateral jumps are thought to rely on foot placement and on upper leg's kinematic and neuromuscular adaptations. The aim of this study was to elucidate task-specific adjustments during the initial impact phase under varying stretch-loads by the comparison of lateral jumps and lateral landings. Ten subjects performed lateral

Numerical study on the behaviour of end-plate beam-to-column connections under lateral impact loading

International Journal of Structural Engineering, 2020
A parametric study is presented in this paper based on validated finite element models that were built in the companion paper that investigates the behaviour of two types of beam-column connections named flush plate connection (FPC) and partial depth end-

Beams Under Lateral Projectile Impact

Journal of the Engineering Mechanics Division, 1982
The influence of transverse shear effects, rotary inertia and the boundary conditions on the dynamic behavior of rigid perfectly plastic beams subjected to projectile impact at midspan is studied. Theoretical solutions for a perfectly clamped and a simply supported beam are presented. Numerical results are given for a rectangular and three wide-flanged

Lateral Impact of Composite Cylinders

1989
An analytical study was conducted to explore and understand the mechanics of the lateral low-velocity impact of composite cylinders by a heavy mass. Two simple models are presented, which when compared with the experimental data demonstrate that the fundamental features of the impact event are represented.

Lateral Structural Deformation in Frontal Impacts

SAE Technical Paper Series, 2006
<div class="htmlview paragraph">In frontal crashes, lateral deformations can occur as a result of various mechanisms. Unfortunately, the crush energy associated with such deformations cannot be assessed as long as the structural properties are unknown. That has been the situation to date, due to the lack of appropriate crash test data.</div>

Impact biomechanics of lateral knee bracing

The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 1991
We evaluated the effects of six different prophylactic braces on ACL ligament strain under dynamic valgus loads using a mechanical surrogate limb validated against human cadaveric specimens. Medial collateral ligament and anterior cruciate ligament peak forces, medial collateral ligament and anterior cruciate ligament tension initiation times, and ...
