Description
AI GeneratedThe government authority in Washington, DC requires experimental and mathematical biomechanics injury research services to advance human injury biomechanics and improve vehicle safety. The requested scope includes conducting tolerance research, developing and evaluating anthropomorphic test devices, creating computational models, analyzing crash data, establishing injury criteria, and using data science tools like AI or machine learning. Only onshore USA organizations are eligible to submit proposals for this opportunity. Applicants must perform the work offsite and can submit their responses digitally via email or online.
