Accelerometers

Fig. 3: Location of accelerometers and history nodes
Figure 3 shows 2 views of the model. The accelerometer and time history nodes are marked. The accelerometer 7 is an additional measurement used for validation. The following table shows the definition of the nodes:
| Location | Accelerometer ID |
1st Node |

| Upper spine |
1 | 10001 | acceleration upper spine |
| Lower spine |
2 | 10003 | acceleration lower spine |
| Pelvis | 3 | 10013 | acceleration pelvis |
| Upper rib |
4 | 10011 | acceleration upper rib |
| Middle rib |
5 | 10009 | acceleration middle rib |
| Lower rib |
6 |
10007 | acceleration lower rib |
| Left arm joint |
7 |
10020 | acceleration clavicle |
| Head |
