Abstract:This study constitutes a summary literature review of injury criteria currently used by regulatory agencies (aerospace and automotive) worldwide, and presents state-of-the-art injury criteria and associated research for most body regions. The literature review findings have been divided into two categories: state-of-the-art injury criteria and state- of- the- art injury research. The state-of-the-art injury criteria category collects those documents where injury criteria are well defined and includes adequate tolerance limits for the criterion in question. This injury criterion should be measurable or derived from physical test parameters. On the other hand, the papers documented as state-of-the-art injury research include those criteria that were or are currently being developed but do not have well defined limits or cannot be measured from physical test parameters. The study divides injury criteria into classifications of: head, neck, torso, upper extremities, and lower extremities. Each body region is then divided into sagittal and coronal loading. Sagittal and coronal loading are subdivided into existing-regulatory, state-of-the-art injury criteria, and state-of-the-art injury research according to the previous definitions.
