TY - JOUR PY - 2009// TI - Injury and Structural Trends During 12 Years of NCAP Frontal Offset Crash Tests JO - Proceedings: International Technical Conference on the Enhanced Safety of Vehicles A1 - Paine, M. A1 - Grifiths, M. A1 - Haley, J. A1 - Newland, C. SP - EP - VL - 2009 IS - N2 - 64km/h frontal offset crash tests are conducted by consumer crash test programs in Australia/New Zealand, Europe, the USA, Korea and Japan. Data from ANCAP and Euro NCAP crash tests are analysed and trends for head, chest and leg protection and structural performance are discussed. Vehicle designs have evolved to provide better occupant protection in frontal offset crashes. Consumer crash test programs have accelerated this process.
