In high-risk environments such as military conflicts, aviation accidents, and competitive sports, lower limb injuries frequently occur. Numerical risk assessment is crucial for safety protective design. This study developed a injury model using multi-body dynamics theory potential impact scenarios. The was validated through cadaver pendulum experiments finite element simulations at six different velocities. Correlation analysis of the proximal tibia force results conducted, probabilities under various loading conditions were determined. findings indicate that curves calculated by closely match those from simulations, with peak errors within 10%. demonstrates high reliability practicality assessment. provides strong support studying risks diverse
