Abstract: Frontal crashes are the most common car accidents and the abdomen is one of the body regions to suffer the most fatal injuries [2]. However, there is no current requirement for the abdomen protection in frontal collisions and crash test dummy abdomen biofidelity still needs to be improved. The aim of this study was to validate the Finite Element (FE) model of a prototype abdomen equipped with Abdominal Pressure Twin Sensors® (APTS) for the THOR dummy.
