Overview: CSDM im Small Overlap, degressiver VorderwagenMartin Böhme untersucht, ob die rotationsbasierten Kopfverletzungskriterien BRIC und CSDM in Kombination mit Crashkonfigurationen mit geringer Überdeckung geeignet sind, das Kopfverletzungsrisiko in Realunfällen abzubilden. Die Ursachen für erhöhte CSDM-Werte und der Einfluss der Interaktion des Dummys mit dem Airbag werden ermittelt. Außerdem betrachtet er ein Vorderwagenkonzept zur Verringerung der Brustbelastung durch Anpassung der Längsträger. Dessen Potential weist Böhme in vier Fahrzeugen nach und stellt eine konstruktive Umsetzung
