Surrogate Human Parts For Energetic Event Testing

Surrogate Human Parts From SJH Projects

SJH Projects Ltd has become the key distributor for the range of surrogate human parts produced by Adelaide Test & Evaluation Systems of Australia.

With world leading levels of biofidelity the surrogate parts are used for testing the benefits of protective measures for energetic events such as blast and ballistics. As well as overcoming the issues of ethics and availability of human or animal parts, these surrogates systems provide excellent repeatability making interpretation of results more reliable.

FSH

Frangible Surrogate Headform

The Frangible Surrogate Headform (FSH) builds on the technology employed in the NATO approved Frangible Surrogate Leg.

This engineered response to high loading rates and impact makes it of potential interest to users worldwide. As well being clinically relevant the FSH can also be instrumented during its construction to provide data on accelerations and pressures within the skullThe Frangible Surrogate Headform (FSH) builds on the technology employed in the NATO approved Frangible Surrogate Leg.

FSA

Frangible Surrogate Arm

The Frangible Surrogate Arm (FSA) builds on the technology employed in the NATO approved Frangible Surrogate Leg.
 
Currently in development the Frangible Surrogate Arm will be used for investigation protection measures for deminers and for the evaluation of injuries in a vehicle blast event.
Thoracic Surrogate

Human Thoracic Surrogate

The Human Thoracic Surrogate is designed to test the effect of protective measures on those gas filled organs that are susceptible to blast over-pressure.
