Abstract Three prototype anthropomorphic test devices (ATD) were fabricated to evaluate the biofidelity of a newly designed THOR 5th percentile female ATD. This report focuses on the biofidelity responses derived from testing one of these ATDs. There were a total of 23 biofidelity test conditions that included the head, neck, shoulder, thorax, abdomen, knee-thigh-hip complex, and lower extremity. Three repeated tests were conducted on a single ATD for each test condition. The biofidelity was objectively scored in accordance with NHTSA’s Biofidelity Ranking System (BioRank). The BioRank score of each body region was scored and the overall BioRank score of the dummy (i.e., the average of all body regions) was less than 2.0, corresponding to “good” biofidelity.
