The study for traffic safety improvement is so necessary to minimize the wound of pedestrian at car impact as to prevent pedestrian from this accident. This study aims at analyzing the behavior affected by impact on which car body hits pedestrian. Load and damage of pedestrian are also investigated. This model is the small car body as frame structure. The pedestrian is modeled with dummy by CATIA as Korean standard body style. The ear impacts the side of pedestrian with the speed from 30 to 90km/h. Behavior and damage of pedestrian at impact are analyzed by ANSYS. In case of 30km/h, The maximum pressure of dummy becomes the maximum value of 100MPa after the elapsed time of 0.1second and then seems to remain at 105MPa constantly. In case of 60km/h, its pressure becomes the maximum value of 110MPa at the elapsed time of 0.05second and decreases at 90MPa until the elapsed time of 0.1second. This value fluctuates after the elapsed time of 0.1second. In case of 90km/h, its maximum pressure becomes the maximum value of 155MPa at the elapsed time of 0.07second and fluctuates after the elapsed time of 0.07second until O.3second. This value seems to remain at 100MPa constantly after 0.3second until 0.5second. But this pressure increases suddenly just after 0.5second. Maximum deformations of dummy increase linearly according to elapsed time at hitting velocities of 30, 60 and 90km/h.

Multi-car rear-end collision accidents have three categories: sequential collision from the rear which is commonly referred to as chain reaction collision, sequential collision from the front, and mixed-order collision. This paper suggests several effective methods of reconstruction analysis for multi-car rear-end collision accidents. First, by incorporating the traditional empirical method which uses vehicle damage caused by brake dive and passenger injuries, with results of theoretical analysis made within mechanics of rigid body, it is made possible for the method to be put to immediate practical use. A methodology to precisely analyze multi-car rear-end collision accidents was suggested using a simulation program simultaneously with a video event data recorder which is starting to be widely used in domestic vehicles. To go beyond the simple intuitive analysis of the video event data recorder, the simulation analysis based on the results of video analysis was executed to acquire various information, so that the causes and responsibility could be clearly stated.

New Car Assessment Program(NCAP) provides consumers with vehicle safety information, primarily front and side crash rating results, and more recently rollover ratings, to aid consumers in their vehicle purchase decisions. NCAP is a system to improve driver and passenger safety by providing market incentives for vehicle manufacturers to voluntarily design their vehicles to better protect drivers and passengers in a crash and be less susceptible to rollover, rather than by regulatory directives. NCAP have been performed since 1999 in Korea by the government in order to reduce fatalities and injuries caused by traffic accidents. Although as the number of vehicles models increases, more vehicle models are required to be test and NCAP is evaluated as a valuable system for vehicle safety, the expansion of the system is slow. It looks like that the benefit of NCAP quantitatively was not verified. In this study, based on the idea that the benefit of the NCAP is defined as the decrease of traffic accident severity by improving vehicle safety, a methodology to analyze the effectiveness of NCAP quantitatively in terms of traffic safety was developed. According to the developed methodology, the reduced numbers of fatalities and injuries were 1.51 and 466 in 2005.

Necessities of a traffic means work a car in the modern society human to an usability of a life is enjoying. On the other hand, the damage by traffic accident increment the human quotient worked as we were in proportion to the vehicle which increased. Passing an examination moves necessarily on an obstacle to suddenly appear at the fronts if a car travels and the vehicles which stopped suddenly. Dynamic passing an examination about an obstacle turn on Vehicle Emergency Lamp to by hand when is unhurried, and can turn off, but to appear urgently dynamic passing an examination in time human is instinctive, but cannot inform an emergency to a back vehicle, and a rear-end collision occurs. A car we synthesize a speed of a vehicle, and this unit analyzes as we use GPS, and to drive runs Vehicle Emergency Lamp to automatic in the situations that shall turn on emergencies etc. If a speed of a vehicle continuously slows down in too high-speed driving or low-speed driving, or we are stopped, Vehicle Emergency Lamp is always turned on. It was built if we rise again as clearing itself from risk, and a speed of a vehicle judges, and we turn off Vehicle Emergency Lamp to automatic. It runs till rear-end collision sensor operates, and by hand reset does Vehicle Emergency Lamp a driving vehicle collides from behind to a back vehicle or when a driving vehicle was overthrown. It is shortened very much to the chain rear-end collision traffic accident that is a traffic accident of large size if we use this unit. And we did authentication through the experiment which a driver was helpful to unnecessary operation and a relaxed safe driving during drivings.

Hemorrhage into the biliary system as a consequence of injury to the liver has been called "traumatic hemobilia," a term introduced by Sandblom in 1948. The source of gastrointestinal hemorrhage has been frequently misinterpreted, resulting in inadequate or inappropriate treatment, often with catastrophic results and needless fatalities. It is now being diagnosed with increasing frequency, due to more widespread knowledge of the syndrome and improved diagnostic means. we experienced 2 cases of hemobilia following blunt chest trauma, One patient had! multiple rib fractures on right chest by car traffic accident and 13 days later, suddenly massive melena was developed with nausea, vomiting, jaundice and severe pain on right upper quadrant. And so, he had operated on the ligation of Rt. hepatic artery and partial right hepatectomy for a traumatic hemobilia. The other one also revealed similar symptoms 20 days later following blunt chest injury by falling down accident. However, uneventful recovery was seen without any of surgical intervention in this case.

Many children have died (Heat stroke deaths) in the U.S. after being left alone in cars during hot weather, especially summer season. According to related report, more than 800 children have died of heat stroke from being trapped in a hot car since 1998. The regulation party, government has started to make not only technical regulation to prevent tragedy but also legislate to punish. However the 75% of accident has occurred unintended by their parents. So punishment is not the best solution for this case. So in this study, we analyze the trend of regulation and technology to save occupant who remained back seat. And finally we propose a countermeasure to prevent heat stroke deaths.

The most important technology to improve crashworthiness of high speed trains is to design their front structures to absorb crash energy easily. In this paper, crashworthy designs of the front structures in KTX and KHST are compared by numerical simulation under SNCF accident scenario. Furthermore, to evaluate their crashworthiness tinder a typical real situation, the power cars are simulated for the accident collided against a deformable dump truck of 15 tons at 110 kph. The front structure of KHST, finally designed, shows a good crashworthy characteristics. Finally, the impact strength of coupling components is evaluated by analyzing a consist of the front three KHST units under scenario of train-to-train collision at 30 kph.
