N2  - The Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association, Inc., (JAMA) and the Japan Automobile Research Institute (JARI) are collaborating to develop a biofidelic pedestrian legform impactor because it is considered that the current major pedestrian legform impactor, the TRL legform impactor, lacks biofidelity. JAMA and JARI have been developing a biofidelic legform impactor since 2000. This report introduces the JAMA-JARI legform impactor ver. 2002. This version has two major improvements: it properly simulates human bone flexibility and human knee joint characteristics. The above improvements are quite important for ensuring biofidelity of the legform impactor. This report introduces the latest JAMA-JARI developed legform impactor and shows its validation test results.<p />
