Abstract

- Whiplash Associated Disorder (WAD) is still one of the most poorly understood traffic injuries.Cervical dorsal root ganglion lesion is a potential cause of WAD. This short communication covers factorsthat potentially contribute to the difference in WAD risk between female and male car occupants in rearimpacts.A prototype female rear impact dummy and the male BioRID II dummy were used. In parallel a 3D modelof the ganglion and the intervertebral bridging veins was developed in CFD software. The T1 x-accelerationwas mostly higher in the female dummy, coinciding with the time of strongest pressure magnitudes.Car seats interacted differently with the female compared the male dummy. Increased early T1acceleration of the female indicates a stronger pressure magnitude in the vertebral canal. Increased pressureswere also found with more female-like neck joint properties.The results points to the need to complete
