I am curious why, because the human body comes in an infinite variety of physical forms compared to a factory dummy, and it would seem that an average sized ATD made of material with a uniform density approximately equal to meat and bone would be sufficient. What do you do with the CG data? P.S. You haven't accepted an answer or commented on others yet, are you getting any useful information? | |
| Nov 21, 2023 at 21:30 | comment | added | SG-005 | the main question is regarding the aircraft seat testing process in which you would require the location of CG of the ATD, I couldn't find a tag specific to that | |

| Nov 21, 2023 at 16:25 | comment | added | Michael Hall | @CamilleGoudeseune, it isn't just the tag, it's the central theme of the question. Are you saying that crash test dummies are used to test hang gliders? | |
| Nov 21, 2023 at 15:08 | comment | added | Camille Goudeseune | More precision is needed for weight-shift trikes, hang gliders, and the like. (But I've no idea how that would connect with the question's tag accident-investigation.) | |
