Rib sample sizes by age and body size from adult PMHS

Download scientific diagram | Rib sample sizes by age and body size from adult PMHS from publication: A Novel Approach to Scaling Age-, Sex-, and Body Size-Dependent Thoracic Responses using Structural Properties of Human Ribs | Thoracic injuries are frequently observed in motor vehicle crashes, and rib fractures are the most common of those injuries. Thoracic response targets have previously been developed from data obtained from post-mortem human subject (PMHS) tests in frontal loading conditions, | Ribs, Thoracic and Rib Fractures | ResearchGate, the professional network for scientists.
