The FIA Institute and Toyota Motor Corporation (TMC) have combined technology and expertise to help improve safety in high-speed racecar accidents.
TMC has developed a computer simulation which recreates high speed accidents and their effects on human physiology. Using the new system called Total Human Model Safety (THUMS), the FIA Institute and TMC have been able to study the kind of serious injuries that are difficult to measure with conventional crash-test dummies. The results of the new study are in the process of completion.
