Abstract:Belt-positioning booster (BPB) seats may prevent submarining in reclined child occupants in frontal impacts[1, 2]. BPB-seated child volunteers showed reduced lateral displacement in reclined seating in low-acceleration lateral-oblique impacts [1]. As submarining was particularly evident in reclined small adult female occupants [3], we examined if a booster seat could provide similar effects on the kinematics of the small female occupant to the ones found on the reclined child volunteers in low-acceleration lat… Show more
