Numerical Simulation of the Passenger Side Airbag Deployment in Out-of-Position
In recent years many accidents happened with passengers that were out of position when their airbag deployed. Therefore new safety regulations have come into effect and an airbag now has to meet several requirements that concern out of positioning. In meeting these requirements simulations of folding and deploying airbags are very useful and are widely used. The paper presents a simulation meth...
متن کاملCorneoscleral Laceration and Ocular Burns Caused by Electronic Cigarette Explosions
PURPOSE To report cases of acute globe rupture and bilateral corneal burns from electronic cigarette (EC) explosions. METHODS Case series. RESULTS We describe a series of patients with corneal injury caused by EC explosions. Both patients suffered bilateral corneal burns and decreased visual acuity, and one patient sustained a unilateral corneoscleral laceration with prolapsed iris tissue a...
متن کاملInjuries associated with airbag deployment.
Motor vehicle crashes are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the United Kingdom. Airbags drastically reduce both morbidity and mortality from crashes, but with the increased use of airbags there has been a corresponding increase in the number of injuries attributable to these devices. This review discusses the history and mechanism of action of airbags, along with the spectrum of inj...
متن کامل[Airbag-associated ocular trauma].
Airbags have received widespread recognition as an effective means of enhancing automobile safety. They are particularly effective in frontal and front angle collisions which otherwise would be fatal or cause serious injuries. Inflation of the bag helps protect the driver and front-seat-passenger from hitting the steering wheel, dashboard or windshield. In frontal crashes airbags have reduced d...
متن کاملAutoliv Uses MSC.Dytran® for Simulation of Innovative Side-Curtain Airbag
Side-curtain airbags have demonstrated the ability to help reduce the possibility of ejection and serious injury during automotive collisions. Engineers developing these new types of airbags are aided by Virtual Product Development tools (VPD), which allow the engineer to more fully analyze the airbag mechanism and dynamic inflation. Autoliv, the world’s largest manufacturer of automotive safet...
