Modern automobiles are safer than their predecessors owing to the installation of new, more effective vehicular restraint systems. Unfortunately, crash-induced fatality and injury rates remain high because certain data related to human injury responses and tolerances are not available to aid in the design of more effective occupant protection. A one-size-fits-all approach is not always the best way to protect occupants of different ages, sizes and weights. The authors believe that personalised protection systems will become the future trend in designing restraint systems. In this study, combined post mortem human subject testing, medical imaging segmentation and explicit finite element analyses were used to exemplify the use of patient-specific data in injury analysis. Rear-end impact simulations were run with the FE models to depict the head and neck kinematics during the so-called 'whiplash' event. Simulations of an active head restraint system were conducted to investigate the risk of neck injury.
