본 논문은 보행자 머리 상해치 예측을 통해 보행자 보호 법규의 만족여부를 판단하는 시스템을 구축 하는데 있다. 차량의 FE DATA와 더미 DATA를 입력하고, MADYMO solver를 이용하여 해석을 수행한다. 이를 통해 나온 결과 HIC(머리상해치)와 보행자 보호 법규에서 제시하는 HIC(머리상해치)와 비교를 통해 만족여부를 판단한다. 강화되는 보행자 보호 법규를 만족시키기 위해 차량시스템을 개선을 유도 하고 이를 통해 차량 대 보행자 사고 시 보행자의 생명을 구하는데 그 궁극적인 목적이 있다.

The number of vehicle accidents related to the side impact has increased since 1990 in Korea, thus the side impact test has been performed as one of the major vehicle evaluations of the Korean New Car Assessment Program(KNCAP) in 2003. A total of 77 vehicles of eight different types(compact, small, semi-midsize, midsize, and large sedans and small, midsize, and large sports utility vehicles) were tested in side impact and side pole impact conditions. In this study, the head and thorax injury values(HICs and chest deflections) of the side impact tests performed between 2003 and 2013 were investigated in terms of vehicle type, test year, and test condition. The recent vehicles showed better safety performances(lower injury values) and similar injury patterns were obtained between side impact and pole side impact tests.

This paper develops a finite element model for studying the occupant behavior and injury cofficients of a large-sized cab-over type truck. Since it does not have a room to absorb collision energy and deformation in front of the passenger compartment the deformation is directly transmitted to the passenger compartment. Moreover, since its steering column is attached on the frame, severe deformation of the frame directly affects on the steering wheel's movement. Therefore, if the occupant behavior and injury coefficients analysis is performed using a finite element model developed based on a sled test, it is very difficult to expect acquiring satisfactory results. Thus, the finite element model developing in this paper is based on the frontal crash test in order to overcome the inherent problems of the sled test based model commonly used in the passenger car. The occupant behavior and injury coefficients analysis is performed using PAM-CRASH installed in super-computer SP2. In order to validate the reliability of the developed finite element model, a frontal crash test is carried out according to a test method used fur developing truck occupant's secondary safety system in european community and japan. That is, test vehicle's collision direction is vertical to the rigid barrier and collision velocity is 45kph. Thus, measured vehicle pulses at the lower parts of the left and right B-pilla., dummy chest and head deceleration profiles, HIC(head injury criterial) and CA(chest acceleration) values, and dummy behavior from the frontal crash test are compared to the analysis results to validate reliability of the developed model.

본 연구는 자동차 충돌 시험에 관련된 항목 중 현재 많은 연구를 하고 있는 측면 충돌 시험 평가에 대한 법규를 지원해주기 위한 시스템 구축에 관한 것이다. 2003년 상반기 국내 최초 충돌 시험을 실시한 바 있고 전 세계적으로 측면 충돌 시험은 자동차 안전성 평가의 기본이 사항이다. 측면 충돌 시험은 각 국가별 상이한 법규와 시험 방법을 가지고 있기 때문에 각각의 내용을 인지하는 것은 자동차 충돌안전에 있어서는 필수 사항이다. 이번 연구는 측면 충돌 시험과 관련된 법규와 측면 충돌 시험 평가 결과값(별의 개수)을 가지고 평가에 대한 내용을 설명하고 이해를 지원해주는데 목적을 두고 있다.

NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) has offered consumers the vehicle safety information on their car since 1978. NHTSA believes that they contribute auto makers to develop safer vehicle for customers, which will result in even lower numbers of deaths and injuries resulting from motor vehicle crashes. NHTSA has been studied why people are still dying in frontal test despite of the use of many restraints system and they understand that current test does not reflect real world crash data such as oblique and corner impact test. As a result, NHTSA announced that a new test method will be introduced to use of enhanced biofidelic dummy and new crash avoidance technology evaluation from 2019. New and refined injury criteria will be applied to Head / Neck / Chest / Lower Leg. BrIC(Brain Injury Criterion)value in NHTSA test results using THOR dummy from 2014 to 2015 was average 0.91 and 1.24 in driver and passenger dummies. IIHS 64kph SOF test is the most likely to new frontal oblique test in an aspect of offset impact which is being studied by NHTSA. In this paper, we focused on head injury, especially brain injury - BrIC and conducted IIHS 64kph SOF (Small Offset Front) test with Hybrid III dummy to evaluate the injury for BrIC. Based on the test results, these data can be predicted BrIC level and US NCAP rating with current vehicle.

A wheeled armored vehicle is a military vehicle that has been developed to enhance combat capabilities and mobility for the army. The wheeled armored vehicle has a high center of gravity, and it operates on unpaved and sloped roads. Therefore, this vehicle has a high risk of rollover crashes. To design the interior of the military vehicle, the crew's safety during rollover crashes is an important factor. However, actual vehicle tests for design are extremely expensive. In this paper, nonlinear dynamic analysis is performed to simulate the rollover crashes and the passenger injury is assessed for a wheeled armored vehicle. The scope of this research is the rollover condition, FE modeling of the wheeled armored vehicle and the dummy, arrangement of dummies, assessment of passenger injuries, and simulation model for rollover crashes.

인체 머리부분의 충격력이 가했을 때 어떠한 상해가 발생할 것인가에 대하여 수치해석적인 접 근을 시도하였다. 복잡한 생체구조의 단순화, 비선형적인 재료 특성으로 인하여 해석 결과는 정 량적인 정확성보다 정성적인 경향성에 보다 큰 의미가 있다고 할 수 있으며, 앞으로 개선할 여 지가 많다고 할 수 있다. 또 의학적인 부분에 관한 기초지식이 필요하기 때문에 의학계의 조건 또는 의학계와의 공동 연구가 요망된다고 하겠다. 해석 결돠의 검증은 과거에는 주로 사체 및 동물 심험에 의하여 행해졌으나 현재에는 사체 실함이 금지되어 있고, 동물(원숭이, 개, 돼지 등 )을 이용한 실험도 동물 보호단체의 반발로 여의치 않은 형편이다. 현재는 교통사고 등에서의 사체 부검 및 사고 상황의 역추적에 의해 생체 실함을 대신할 데이터가 마련되고 있으나, 정확한 사고 상황을 파악하는 것 자체가 또한 어려운 작업이다. 그래서 각 나라에서 일부분씩 가지고 있는 생체에 대한 데이터를 모아 전세계적인 데이터 베이스를 만들어 공유하려는 작업이 진행 되고 있다. 이렇게 실험이 불가능하거나 어려운 상황하에서는 수치 시뮬레이션이 주요한 해석 수단이 될 수 있을 것이라 생각된다.

The whiplash Injuries due to rear collision occur frequently. As result, in many countries, seat performance is being assessed and developed to improve head whiplash injury in rear collision of passenger car. This study compares whiplash assessment methods in each country. Using the DFSS(Design for Six Sigma) method, the correlation between influence parameters of head restraints and whiplash injury criteria is analyzed. Four control factors are used in this study. And total 11 whiplash injury criteria from NCAP(New Car Assessment Program) of Korea, Europe, China and IIHS(Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) of USA are used for output response. By the experimental design, L9 orthogonal coordinate system is configured and is tested by sled test equipment, twice. By using average assay value and ANOVA, the correlation between control factors and injury criteria has been comprehended. Optimization design of head restraint according the regional seat safety assessment was derived through the correlation.
