Data Set 13: Car Crash Tests The same cars are used in Data Set 14. The data are measurements from cars crashed into a fixed barrier at 35 mi/h with a crash test dummy in the driver's seat. HIC is a measurement of a standard "head injury criterion," CHEST is chest deceleration (in g, where g is a force of gravity), FEML is the measured load on the left femur (in lb), FEMR is the measured load on the right femur (in lb), TTI is a measurement of the side thoracic trauma index, and PLVS is pelvis deceleration (in g, where g is a force of gravity). Data are from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. STATDISK: Minitab: Excel: Data set name is Car Crash Tests. Worksheet name is CRASH.MTW. Workbook name is CRASH.XLS. TI-83/84 Plus: App name is CRASH and the individual column names are the same as for text files. Text file names: HIC, CHEST, FEML, FEMR, TTI, PLVS.
