European safety community has been actively involved in side impact research and has made significant contributions. One of the most recent is the development of the Euro-SID (European Side impact Dummy) which contains an abdominal injury detection element. This report details an analysis of the dummy abdomen and the cadaver tests upon which it is based.Specifically, the analysis examines the empirical basis, and final design of the Euro-SID abdomen with the following conclusions proffered:
