Ed,
thanks for the reply and information.
unfortunately i don't have the resources to conduct instrumented tests.
are you aware of any report or data that offers general data on typical data with
respect to occupant force loading on seat belts? I'm trying to determine if there is
a practical way to estimate a restrained occupant's G loading based on the vehicle's delta V.
