abstract="In recent years, many studies have been made in the biomechanical and other fields, on, &quot;whiplash&quot; or cervical vertical sprain which is on type of injury sustained by vehicle occupants in low-speed rear-end collisions. This paper describes a cervical analysis of whiplash occurring in the lower rear-end collision. In particular, it describes the use of a more humanized biomechanical cervical model to analyze cervical behavior in low rear-end collisions. The results of tests with this model were verified on the TRID-II Neck and the Hybrid-III Neck models.<p />",
