Manoogian 1 PREGNANT OCCUPANT INJURY RISK USING COMPUTER SIMULATIONS WITH NCAP VEHICLE CRASH TEST DATA
Automobile crashes are the largest single cause of death for pregnant females and the leading cause of traumatic fetal injury mortality in the United States. A previously validated MADYMO computer model of a 30-week pregnant occupant was used in this study to investigate the pregnant occupant response in a New Car Assessment Program (NCAP) frontal barrier motor vehicle crash. The effect of the ...
متن کاملCrash and occupant predictors of pulmonary contusion.
OBJECTIVES Pulmonary contusions (PCs) are a common injury sustained in motor vehicle collisions. The crash and occupant characteristics of PC in motor vehicle collisions are currently unknown. Additionally, the clinical significance and the impact on mortality have not been determined. METHODS A retrospective review of the Crash Injury Research and Engineering Network database with inclusion ...
متن کاملOccupant Transportation Decision Algorithm: an Advanced Automatic Crash Notification Algorithm Developed and Evaluated for Motor Vehicle Crash Occupant Triage
The objective was to develop an Advanced Automatic Crash Notification (AACN) algorithm and evaluate its performance in making optimal occupant triage decisions. The developed AACN algorithm known as the Occupant Transportation Decision Algorithm (OTDA) uses measurements obtainable from vehicle telemetry to predict risk of overall occupant injury and recommend a transportation decision for the o...
متن کاملComparison of occupant restraint performance measures for crash injury prediction.
Current procedures for estimating occupant risk in real-world vehicle crashes do not account for the performance of the occupant restraints, such as seatbelts and airbags. This paper compares the ability of two restraint performance metrics, the ridedown efficiency and the restraint quotient, to predict occupant injury as measured by a crash test dummy. The responses of crash test dummies were ...
متن کاملComputer crash simulations in the development of child occupant safety policies.
OBJECTIVE To address the predictability of injury from air bag activation by use of crash simulation software. METHODS Using current, validated crash simulation software, the effect of air bag activation on injury risk was assessed for the 6-year-old child, both restrained and unrestrained. Results were compared with those for adult occupants in similar crash scenarios. RESULTS For the unre...
