What is Crash Pulse Duration and Injury Risk about?

The study examines the impact of crash pulse duration on injury risk in 272 real-life frontal collisions, finding that duration has a limited effect compared to acceleration. The average pulse duration for serious injuries (AIS2+) was only 7% longer than for minor injuries (AIS1), while mean acceleration differences were 89%. The research suggests that design criteria for crashworthy vehicles should prioritize acceleration over pulse duration, as longer durations do not significantly increase injury risk.
