I am looking for the actual forces required to cause fractures to the various different regions of the facial and skull bones. If you could share some info/ literature on that would be of great help (either general or specific to motor vehicle accidents).
Dear Vigneswaran Veeramuthu following papers may be helpful:

Hello Vigneswaran,
The book by Nahum in the second link provided by Aamir is very comprehensive regarding the literature on head and facial trauma. Additionally you might find these two articles helpful.

Tarriere1981-field facial injuries and study of their simulation with dummy
Thank you Varun Bollapragada. The information you shared is indeed helpful. I have managed to get hold some of the literatures u listed.
