With increasing need of transportation services for people with disabilities and the aged, wheelchairs are used as their assistive devices to participate in daily and recreational activities and as seats of motor vehicle. However, as wheelchairs are primarily designed fer mobility assistive devices, not for vehicle seats, wheelchair users may experience serious injury when they meet car crashes. To date, neither engineering guidance for a wheelchair mounting system on the vehicle floor nor safety assessment analysis by a car crash has been studied for the domestic users. In this paper, in accordance with the ANSVRESNA WC-19, a fixed vehicle mounted wheelchair occupant restraint system (FWORS), wheelchair integrated restraint system (WIRS), and wheelchair integrated x-bend restraint system (WIXRS) subjected to frontal impact (20 g, 48 U) were analyzed using compute. simulations for domestic users. We present surrogate wheelchair occupant safety by head injury criteria (HIC), motion criteria (MC), and combined injury criteria (CIC).

In the automotive industry, the development of automobiles to meet safety requirements is becoming increasingly complex. This is because quality evaluation agencies in each country are continually strengthening new safety standards for vehicles. Among these various requirements, collision safety must be satisfied by controlling airbags, seat belts, etc., and can be defined as post-crash safety. Apart from this safety system, the Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) use advanced detection sensors, GPS, communication, and video equipment to detect the hazard and notify driver before the collision. However, research to improve passenger safety in case of an accident by using the sensor of active safety represented by ADAS in the existing passive safety is limited to the level that utilizes the sudden braking level of the FCA (Forward Collision-avoidance Assist) system. Therefore, this study aims to develop logic that can improve passenger protection in case of an accident by using ADAS information and driving information secured before a collision. The proposed logic was constructed based on LSTM deep learning techniques and trained using crash test data.

TTX(Tilting Train eXpress) is being designed for improving the speed of conventional railway. The purpose of this study is to evaluate energy absorbing capacity and driver's survivability for a design candidate of the front end structure of TTX. A FE model with honeycomb block, under frame, and body frame is generated for crash simulation. Based on a level-crossing accident scenario, numerical simulation is performed using LS-DYNA. The results of crash analysis show that strength improvement of the current front end structure design candidate is needed to ensure driver safety.

Lightweight design, safety, vibration, energy absorption capability can no longer achieve without adhesive bond joint. Base on those concepts and cost reduction, adhesive bond FEM model development has been done. The FEM analysis and experiments were conducted in this study. Crash condition is 143 Kg Hammer weight and unit meter Height. and then These test results were used to develop resonable FEM model. To estimate which FEM model is resonable, compare hybrid joint specimen experiment results with FEM analysis results. Conclusively this study achieves optimization bonding model related crash and adhesive bond jointed hat profile crash characters.

PURPOSES: This paper presents the results of computer simulations of roadside safety barrier, called by safety roller guardrail, consisting of rotational roller, rotation control plate, post and subsidiary members. The rotation roller and rotation control plate are made by EVA(ethylene vinyl acetate), and PE(polyester), respectively. METHODS: The occupant risk analysis has been carried out under vehicle crash condition for high containment level of SB-4 for the purpose of local road. Simulations are performed with the finite element code LS/DYNA-3D. RESULTS: The numerical results obtained by LS/DYNA-3D software from the viewpoints of vehicle stability, vehicle trajectory, occupant risk, etc. CONCLUSIONS: It is noted that not only impact severity is drastically reduced but also vehicle trajectory is improved due to the characteristics of energy absorption and rotation pattern of EVA rollers connected by control plates.

Investigations of the commercial aircraft impact effect on nuclear island infrastructures have been drawing extensive attention, and this paper aims to perform the safety assessment of Generation III nuclear power plant (NPP) buildings subjected to typical commercial aircrafts crash. At present Part I, finite element (FE) models establishment and validations for both the aircrafts and NPP buildings are performed. (i) Airbus A320 and A380 aircrafts are selected as the representative medium and large commercial aircrafts, and the corresponding fine FE models including the skin, beam, fuel and etc. are established. By comparing the numerically derived impact force time-histories with the existing published literatures, the rationality of aircrafts models is verified. (ii) Fine FE model of the Chinese Zhejiang Sanao NPP buildings is established, including the detailed structures and reinforcing arrangement of both the containment and auxiliary buildings. (iii) By numerically reproducing the existing 1/7.5 scaled aircraft model impact tests on steel plate reinforced concrete (SC) panels and assessing the impact process and velocity time-history of aircraft model, as well as the damage and the maximum deflection of SC panels, the applicability of the existing three concrete constitutive models (i.e., K&C, Winfrith and CSC) are evaluated and the superiority of Winfrith model for SC panels under deformable missile impact is verified. The present work can provide beneficial reference for the integral aircraft crash analyses and structural damage assessment in the following two parts of this paper.

교통사고 원인분석 및 사고예방을 위해서는 교통사고 유발요인에 대한 이해가 필요하다. 기존 연구에서는 기하구조, 운전자 특성 등의 요인을 고려하여 연구를 진행하였다. 그러나, 운전자 특성요인 분석에 사용된 자료는 검지기에서 측정된 집계된 속도로써, 속도 변화량을 이용한 사고분석연구에는 한계가 존재한다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 차량의 속도변화 등의 수집이 용이한 센서를 이용하여 자료를 수집하였다. 가속도자료 및 기하구조 특성을 나타내는 변수를 설정하고, 사고자료와 매칭을 통해 사고개연성이 높은 잠재적 변수로의 적합성을 평가하였다. T-test, 이항 로지스틱 회귀분석을 사용했으며, T-test 결과로써 도출된 변수를 이항 로지스틱 회귀분석의 독립변수에 적용하고, 사고발생 유 무를 종속변수로 설정하였다. 분석결과, 5개의 변수가 사고발생에 영향을 주는 변수로 도출되었다. 또한, 도출된 모형은 사고발생구간의 예측에 적용할 수 있는 타당성을 확보하는 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구에서 도출된 위험 운전행태 변수 및 모형은 프로브차량에 설치하여 활용할 수 있는 장치 등에 적용시켜 사고위험도 및 안전성 평가에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In general, an assessment of the benefits and costs with regard to vehicle safety standards are validated before regulations are implemented. This paper performs this validation for the mandatory automobile safety devices requirement for new micro-mobility. The reviewed car safety standards involved the installation of seat belts, airbags, ABS, crash speed standards, and pedestrian warning system. The benefit was estimated as the cost of accident reduction due to the installation of vehicle safety standards. As a result, the safety belt showed a B / C of 4.0 or higher, and it was found that the seat belt should be installed from 2017. After the seatbelt regulation in 2017, the results of the scenarios with the airbag, ABS, crash speed of 40 km/h, and the pedestrian warning system showed B / C of 1.0 or more according to the year of regulation. This study can be useful as a tool in the decision-making process with regard to the timing and type of vehicle safety standards requirement of micro-mobility in the future.

도로변에는 다양한 부정형의 구조물들이 방호되지 않은 채 노출되어 있어서 통행차량에 큰 위험요소가 되고 있다. 이러한 부정형 구조물을 효과적으로 방호하는 수단으로 구조물 앞에 에너지흡수형 모듈을 적층구조로 쌓는 방법이 있다. 본 논문은 EPS블록으로 구성된 모듈타입의 충격흡수장치를 차량과 충격흡수장치간의 에너지 평형원리를 이용하여 해석하는 방법을 소개하고 0.9ton-500km/h, 0.9ton-60km/h and 0.9ton-70km/h의 충돌조건에 대한 수치 예제로 설명하였다. 이 방법은 최대가속도, 충돌변형에 걸리는 시간 모든 모듈에 대한 변형이 완료되기 전에 차량의 완전한 정지여부 등에 대한 예측을 가능하게 하지만, 모듈 수만큼의 매우 듬성듬성한 속도 및 가속도 데이터를 주기 때문에 RA와 OIV같은 안전지수를 구하기 위해서는 보간법을 이용한 데이터 수의 확대가 필요하다. 선형 및 스플라인 보간법을 이용하여 안전도를 분석하고 결과를 비교 분석하였다.
