A 3D finite element human body model was used to compare the behavior of dummies and the human body under different impact conditions. The model was validated in many different impact configurations against a large number of biomechanical corridors. To compare responses, models of Hybrid III and Eurosid dummies were also used. Three typical impact configurations were chosen using the currently most advanced restraint systems with belt load limiter, pretensioner, knee bolster, frontal and lateral air bags and pelvis door padding. A comparative study was then conducted by varying some of the restraint system parameters.
