Abstract :
Anticipated developments in physical anthropomorphic models for automotive safety application, which may yield benefits in terms of improved automotive crash injury assessment, are outlined. Potential developments are briefly discussed by major body area and for the device as a whole. Issues involved in the quest for improved physical model performance are indicated, and likely limitations inherent in the eventual application of these devices are identified.<>
