Evaluation of protection systems for the lower extremity against the shock and blast effects resulting from anti-personnel mines using the Surrogate Lower Leg (SLL)
Evaluation of protection systems for the lower extremity against the shock and blast effects resulting from anti-personnel mines using the Surrogate Lower Leg (SLL)
The Surrogate Lower Leg (SLL) accurately represents the behaviour of the Human Lower Leg during anti-personnel blast mine detonations. The SLL also incorporates a Developmental Sensor System capable of measuring shock progression within the SLL during mine events.
