Yun‐Seok Kang

This researcher studies how the human body responds to and is injured by impact forces, especially in car crashes, using cadaver testing, crash test dummies, and computer simulations of ribs, chest, and abdomen. The work aims to improve vehicle safety systems (like seats and airbags) and injury-prediction models, particularly for different body sizes including small females and mid-size males. Some publications also touch on unrelated topics such as bone health in animal studies and geological slope safety, suggesting collaborations outside the core injury-biomechanics focus.

Publication output was strongest and fairly steady between 2017 and 2020 (8–12 per year), dipped sharply in 2021, then partially recovered through 2023–2024, with a notable drop in 2025–2026 so far.
