Development of an instrumented anthropomorphic dummy for the study of impacts and falls in skiing
The development of anthropomorphic dummies to be used during impact and fall tests in skiing is presented. The dummies allow introducing in the impacts the realistic conditions of skiing equipment against the safety barriers; on the other side, the dummies can wear protective devices whose performance can be evaluated during full scale simulations. The concept, design, construction and calibration of the dummies during the INTERREG SkiProTech project are presented to explain the possibilities of applications of such devices in research.
