Load measuring method of occupant's leg on motorcycle collision

Tadokoro, Hidetoshi

Abstract In the past, researchers have studied the leg protection devices. We can say there is no effective device which protects motorcycle occupant's legs without negative side effect.

In the development of effective leg protection devices, it has become necessary to analyze leg injury mechanism.

In this regard, advancements in the measuring method of leg load alalysis are viewed as a significant contribution to the further research of leg protection device.

In this paper we have examined, tested and analized leg load measuring method.
