  • Discussion of Potential Application of Virtual Hbm Within a Far-Side Occupant Protection Assessment
    RECONSTRUCTION OF A SIDE IMPACT ACCIDENT WITH FAR-SIDE OCCUPANT USING HBM – DISCUSSION OF POTENTIAL APPLICATION OF VIRTUAL HBM WITHIN A FAR-SIDE OCCUPANT PROTECTION ASSESSMENT Christian Mayer Jan Dobberstein Uwe Nagel Daimler AG Germany Ravikiran Chitteti Ghosh Pronoy Sammed Pandharkar Mercedes-Benz Research and Development India Pvt. Ltd India Paper Number 17-0258 ABSTRACT Advanced Human Body FE models are now being used extensively in the development process of vehicle safety systems. This tool on one hand aids in the optimization of restraint systems and on the other hand also provides a detailed analysis of injury mechanisms when used within accident reconstruction. A good documented (injury patterns & physical loading conditions) real world crash and its reconstruction not only ensure further development of vehicle safety, but also allows further improvement of these Human Body Models in terms of biomechanical validity and injury prediction capability. This is particularly important, as injury prediction should not only be based on physical thresholds or isolated tissue based injury parameters but should also allow a population based probabilistic estimation of injury risk. Therefore the main objective of this study was the reconstruction and detailed analysis of a real world side crash using a numerical HBM. This real world side crash was chosen from the DBCars in-house accident database of Daimler. In the selected case, a medium sized Mercedes car was struck at approximately the front wheel on the passenger side and had a rollover subsequently. The driver sustained mainly abdominal injuries. A THUMS V4 male model was used to represent the driver of the struck car and to reconstruct the injuries.

Prepared for: Federal Highway Administration Office of Safety Under: Contract DTFH61‐05‐D‐00024 Task Order T‐10‐001 July 15, 2010 FOREWORD (To be prepared by FHWA) NOTICE This document is disseminated under the sponsorship of the U.S. Department of Transportation in the interest of information exchange. The United States Government assumes no liability for its contents or use thereof. The contents of this report reflect the views of the author, who is responsible for the accuracy of the data presented herein. The contents do not necessarily reflect the official policy of the Department of Transportation. i PREFACE While many highway safety stakeholder organizations have their own strategic highway safety plans, there is not a singular strategy that unites all of these common efforts. FHWA began the dialogue towards creating a national strategic highway safety plan at a workshop in Savannah, Georgia, on September 2‐3, 2009. The majority of participants expressed that there should be a highway safety vision to which the nation aspire, even if at that point in the process it was not clear how or when it could be realized. The Savannah group concluded that the elimination of highway deaths is the appropriate goal, as even one death is unacceptable. With this input from over 70 workshop participants and further discussions with the Steering Committee following the workshop, the name of this effort became “Toward Zero Deaths: A National Strategy on Highway Safety.” The National Strategy on Highway Safety is to be data‐driven and incorporate education, enforcement, engineering, and emergency medical services.

  • Front Seat Occupant Injuries in Far Side Collisions
    CHARACTERISTICS OF THE INJURY ENVIRONMENT IN FAR-SIDE CRASHES K. Digges1, H Gabler2, P. Mohan1, B. Alonzo1 1-The National Crash Analysis Center George Washington University 2- Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University ABSTRACT The population of occupants in far-side crashes that are documented in the US National database (NASS/CDS) was studied. The annual number of front seat occupants with serious or fatal injuries in far-side planar crashes and rollovers was 17,194. The crash environment that produces serious and fatal injuries to belted front seat occupants in planar far-side crashes was investigated in detail. It was found that the median crash severity for serious and fatal injuries was a lateral delta-V of 28 kph and an extent of damage of CDC 3.6. Vehicle to vehicle impacts were simulated by finite element models to determine the intrusion characteristics associated with the median crash condition. These simulations indicated that the side damage caused by the IIHS barrier was representative of the extent of damage in crashes that produce a large fraction of the serious injuries in far-side crashes. Occupant simulations of the IIHS barrier crash at 28 kph showed that existing dummies lack biofidelity in upper body motion. The analysis suggested test conditions for studying far-side countermeasures and supported earlier studies that showed the need for an improved dummy to evaluate safety performance in the far-side environment. OCCUPANTS EXPOSED TO FAR-SIDE CRASHES are those seated on the side of the vehicle opposite the struck side. Two principal types of crashes produce injuries to far-side occupants.

  • Module 11 – Reducing Collision Consequences
    Module 11 – Reducing Collision Consequences The goal of every driver is to safely get to their destination. Unfortunately, this goal is not always obtained. Plan to address dangerous situations before they arise. Good driving habits are your responsibility. Unfortunately, bad driving behaviors continue and they cause unnecessary injury and death. This module contains information about how to be a defensive driver and how to reduce the consequences of a crash if one is unavoidable. These driving habits and practices are designed to help you minimize the negative results of a collision. Topics addressed in this module to help reduce the consequences of a collision include: • Safety belts and air bags for all occupants; • Child passenger protection; • Locking doors and securing loose articles; • Minimizing the first collision; • Preparing for a driving emergency; and • Deciding when to stop driving. Over the last two years the number of traffic crashes, injuries, and deaths has declined. NHTSA estimates that from 1975 through 2009, safety belts saved 267,890 lives, including 12,713 lives saved in 2009. Frontal air bags have saved 30,232 lives since 1987. Motor vehicle manufacturers continue to make safety belt and air bag design improvements-- adding safety belts that self-tighten and air bags that deploy from the sides. Using safety belts and air bags is definitely in your best interest. Safety belts and air bags are so valuable and effective that every new passenger car sold in the U.S. must have them as standard equipment. Primary seat belt laws allow law enforcement officers to ticket a driver for not wearing a seat belt, without any other traffic offense taking place.

  • A Review Paper on Safety of Third Row Occupant in the Event Of
    ISSN XXXX XXXX © 2019 IJESC Research Article Volume 9 Issue No.3 A Review Paper on Safety of Third Row Occupant in The Event of Vehicle Crash Sarika Khare1, Sandip Kumar2, Vinayak Bhore3 Department of Mechanical Engineering Bharati Vidyapeeth Institute of Technology, Navi Mumbai, India Abstract: Exceptional advancement in the various fields of science and technologies in the 20th century lead us to today’s more elegant life. One of the major contributors to this advancement is the high speed road transfer facilities. Increased running speed and density of vehicle on roadways are causing large number of accident which leads to large number of deaths and serious injuries. According to Global report on road safety 2013, Over 1,37,000 people were killed in Indian road accidents in 2013 alone, that is more than the number of people killed in all Indian wars put together. This scenario is not much different in the other part of the world too. This large number of road fatalities is always being concern for the every government of the world and has encouraged them to mandate considerable safety feature in the every vehicle manufactured. Dynamic vehicle market has also become a motivational source for the vehicle manufacturer to meet the requirement set by testing agencies like ENCAP to get maximum star rating for safety which gives them an edge over the competitor. Keywords: Third row occupant, NHTSA, IIHS ENCAP. I. INTRODUCTION facing seats which are becoming more popular in the country like India. Thus Evaluation of the side facing third row occupant is Considering the mandatory requirement stated by different done frontal and rear impact for both belted and unbelted automotive safety authorities and star rating requirement by conditions.
