29 3. Summary The Flex-PLI provides improved biofidelity of the tibia and knee at both assembly and component levels Accident data show that tibia fracture is most frequent in pedestrian severe (AIS 2+) injuries Most significant factor that would contribute to injury mitigation is enhanced biofidelity of the tibia and much wider coverage of injury measurements over the tibia Additional annual cost reduction due to tibia fracture mitigation by introducing the Flex-PLI was estimated to be approximately $377M of Economic and $650M of Comprehensive in the US, relative to the use of TRL legform Japan data could not be processed in the same way as performed with the US data due to the lack of information may require further study 29
