The development of finite element model for Malaysian Female Anthropometric Dummy

In recent years, dummy development for crash test have grown rapidly to decrease the fatalities during crash. These dummies are generated based on anthropometric database consisting of several percentile. Anthropometric data is very important in terms of ergonomics to specify the physical dimensi...
