The objectives for this report were to review the current state-of-the-art of biodynamics research associated with injury and fatality-producing motor vehicle accidents, to identify the technical gaps in past and present biodynamics research, and to discuss and recommend research programs to both fill these gaps and provide steady future advancements. The discussions contained in this report describe the past, present, and future aspects of the several occupant environmental tolerance envelopes, biodynamic response of man, man-vehicle coupling and restraints, classification and evaluation of crash injuries, the necessary biodynamic measurements of the occupant's deceleration environments, and a simplified ten-year plan of recommended research programs.
