본 논문에서는 자동차후면추돌이나 에어백시험 등에서 인체모형의 중요한 평가지수인 목 상해를 평가 할 수 있는 평가시스템에 대하여 연구하였다. 목 상해($N_{ij}$) 기준만족여부를 판단하기 위하여 Diadem 프로그램을 이용하여 더미(Dummy)의 종류별, 시험의 조건별로 자동으로 계산되는 평가시스템을 개발하여 목 상해 기준을 보다 편리하고 정확하게 계산 할 수 있도록 하였다.

Prasad and Mertz published head injury risk curves for skull fracture and for Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) ${\geq}4$ brain injury due to forehead impacts based on the 15 ms HIC criterion. KNCAP adopted the HIC36 criterion for the male dummy and the HIC15 criterion for the female dummy. In this paper, it was studied that which of the HIC15 and HIC36 was more effective for the male dummy head injury evaluation. The frontal US-NCAP data for the 7 vehicles from the NHTSA test database were used to evaluate the head injuries. In the case of using the HIC15 and evaluation range 250~700, the discrimination of the rating for the occupant head injury was increased.

Whiplash is the most frequent injury among occupants in low speed rear-end car collision. The aim of this paper is to analyze thecorrelation between influence parameters of head restraints and whiplash injury criteria.In this paper, DFSS (Design for Six Sigma) method is used for optimum design of head restrains. Four control factors of head restraints have selected by function matrix method. The effects of the control factors have been experimentally evaluated by using a sled pulse from 16km/h relative velocity which is suggested by KNCAP (Korean New Car Assessment Program). In order to reduce the noise factors of dynamic tests, whiplash tests were repeated twice. By using DFSS, the correlation between control factors and injury criteria has been comprehended.

The research committee for automobile repairs (RCAR), an international body of insurance research centers, has adopted the typical low speed crash test based on an average damage level in crash accidents to estimate the damageability , repairability and safety. The characteristics of body acceleration and the probability of injury are investigated based on damaged components, accelerations of body and injured dummy to analyze damageability and the driver's safety under low speed crash environment. It is found from the experimental results that the probability of head and thorax injuries are very low comparing to the injury criteria of FMVSS No.208. Furthermore, it is suggested that the deployment of airbag may not be necessary at RCAR low speed frontal crash test.

For the purpose of evaluation the damage repairability of a Frame Type Passenger vehicle which experienced a Low Speed 40% Offset front and rear Crash Test. tests were made according to the RCAR testing procedures. Test results concluded ; (1) The deceleration at C.G(center of gravity) off 6.9∼11.39 was similar to that for the vehicle. The airbag system was found to affect neither the passenger's safety nor the savings of the repairing costs. (2) In order to improve the repairability of the Frame Type Passenger vehicle after collision should be a higher crash performance of the bumper on the RCAR standards.

Side collisions (or side crash) account for 51.6% of all car to car accidents occurred in 2010. It is necessary to analyze those vehicles' structure deformation and passengers' injuries in the side collisions. A moving barrier (950kg) is currently used in the KNCAP side impact test. However, in order to enhance a passengers' safety in the side collisions, we introduce an AE-MDB (1500kg) which provides more severe conditions for this test. In this study, the test results using both barriers are compared and analyzed.

연구목적: 본 연구는 고교운동선수들의 스포츠상해(부상)현황 파악을 통한 사고 및 손상예방을 목적으로 개발된 손상감시프로그램을 설명하고, 1년간 수집된 자료를 보고하기 위하여 수행되었다. 연구방법: 본 연구는 미국 플로리다주 내의 10개 고등학교에 재학 중인 학생 운동선수들의 스포츠상해(부상)에 대한 세부내용(사고경위, 상해부위, 사고 당시 환경적 요소 등)을 수집하여 이루어졌다. 학생 운동선수들에게 발생한 스포츠상해 조사 및 보고는 2007년에서 2008년에 걸친 학기동안 각 학교에 배치된 운동트레이너(Certified Athletic Trainer)에 의해 이루어졌다. 연구결과: 조사기간 동안 10개 조사대상 고등학교에서 614건의 스포츠상해가 발생하였고, 연습 중 사고노출 비율(1,000회의 연습 중 1명의 선수가 상해를 입는 경우를 기준으로 함)에 있어서는 풋볼(Football)이 2.73을 기록해 가장 높은 상해율을 보였으며 여자축구(2.03)와 남자농구(1.67)가 그 뒤를 이었다. 실전경기 중 사고노출 비율(1,000회의 실전경기당 1명의 선수가 상해를 입는 경우를 기준으로 함)의 경우, 풋볼(Football)이 14.4, 여자농구가 9.96, 레슬링이 7.1을 기록하였다. 운동상해로 인한 증상은 염좌/삠(관절손상)이 가장 많았고, 가장 많이 다치는 신체부위는 발목, 무릎, 머리인 것으로 나타났다.

Vehicle-into-pedestrian traffic accidents show a very high mortality rate compared to their frequency of occurrence. Throughout the world, governments and insurance companies tend to establish and implement new safety standards for pedestrian protection. In order to improve the performance of pedestrian protection, the Korean government has evaluated the pedestrian safety of vehicles under the Korea New Car Assessment Program (K-NCAP) since 2007. The pedestrian protection performance has improved gradually, but it remains insufficient. A pedestrian protection system consisting of a hood lift system and a pedestrian airbag can be a solution to pedestrian safety. A pedestrian airbag design procedure based on a newly defined design scenario is introduced to reduce the head injury criterion of pedestrians. The proposed design scenario is discussed from a practical viewpoint and applied to manufacture pedestrian protection systems.

There is not enough absorption space in the side of a vehicle so injuries to a passenger are higher compared to frontal impact injuries. For the protection of the passenger in the event of a side impact, vehicle regulations and new car assessment program(NCAP) are implemented all over the world. However, passive safety such as absorption technology of vehicle body itself is limited due to the narrow space of the side part. At the present time, it is well known that a side airbag including a curtain airbag is the most effective system to protect the passenger during a side impact. In this study, optimum design of the curtain airbag is carried out to reduce Head Injury Criterion(HIC) of the passenger. Based on crashworthiness simulation, an orthogonal array is selected based on the defined design variables, the response surfaces are generated from the orthogonal array and optimization is conducted with the surfaces.
