Parametric tests were performed in a containment fixture simulating automotive side impact to determine the boundary conditions which simulate inertial properties of whole cadavers during impacts of the isolated human pelvis. The global motion of each specimen was captured with two KODAK EKTAPRO digital imagers calibrated to measure displacement of the pubic symphysis in the AP plane and lateral compression of the pelvis and pubic symphysis in the frontal plane. Motion analysis was completed with a KODAK EKTAPRO hi-spec motion analyzer. The measurements indicate that the pubic symphysis exhibits a stiff response during simulated automotive side impact at 4.5 m/s.
