Abstract

This technical paper will discuss the development of the new Elderly ATD. This ATD was developed to represent a population with increased vulnerability to injury. The Elderly ATD will provide vehicle manufactures with new tools to evaluate future designs and provide insight on ways to enhance safety measures for their products.
