dc.description.abstract

In this research the criteria of neck and head injuries are examined to see if the forces experienced in car crashes can relate to the forces that fighter jet pilots experience. The data that the National Highway Traffic Administration (NHTSA) has presented on injury data and the Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) will be used in classifying the types of injuries that pilots could experience during ejection. With the NHTSA data and the AIS the research should show that pilot will experience AIS values that affect the lower cervical spine of C7-T1 rather than the upper C1- C4.
