Assessing Motorcyclist Protection Systems Using Finite Element Simulations
The impact of motorcyclists against the posts of the roadside barriers is one of the most frequently and harmful accidents. In order to avoid or minimize impact effects, different safety systems are being installed in many roads in the world. These safety systems should conform technical standards. European Technical Specification 1317-8 defines how it should be the testing procedure and placem...
متن کاملRoles of Motorcycle Type and Protective Clothing in Motorcycle Crash Injuries
Background. The aims of this study were to identify subgroups of motorcyclists with a higher accident risk and evaluate the efficiency of protective clothing for preventing injuries. Methods. A 1-year prospective study of motorcycle crashes was conducted beginning in June 2012. Participants were patients involved in motorcycle crashes and admitted to our emergency department. Results. A total o...
متن کاملEstimating infant head injury criteria and impact response using crash reconstruction and finite element modeling.
A combination of finite element modeling and sled test reconstruction of real-world infant head injury scenarios has been used to investigate infant head impact response and tolerance to skull fracture. Studying the role of cranial sutures on infant skull response was of particular interest. The specific injury scenarios selected for reconstruction involved infants in rear-facing child restrain...
متن کاملWeb dynamics analysis using finite element simulations
This work focuses on web dynamics and wrinkles analysis in industrial web handling systems by using finite element modeling. The main objective is to simulate wrinkles in a real environment with the control part of the system, depending on mechanical parameters and process data. The effects of misaligned rollers and a roller deflection are specifically analyzed in order to study the influence o...
متن کاملMotorcycle rider conspicuity and crash related injury: case-control study.
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether the risk of motorcycle crash related injuries is associated with the conspicuity of the driver or vehicle. DESIGN Population based case-control study. SETTING Auckland region of New Zealand from February 1993 to February 1996. PARTICIPANTS 463 motorcycle drivers (cases) involved in crashes leading to hospital treatment or death; 1233 motorcycle drivers (co...
