Olecranon Fracture - Request For Information

[Terry Smith]

I am looking for any available references which will indicate the force
required to fracture the olecranon. I have reviewed much of the car crash
literature; however, elbow fractures are not commonly seen in frontal
collisions. I am hoping that someone from the ergonomics or protective
equipment community may have some available references. I shall make a
general posting of all replies.
Thank You
