Rear Seat Occupant Protection in Frontal Crashes and Its Feasibility
As part of NHTSAs Rear Seat Occupant Protection Research Program, the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) and State Data System (SDS) for Florida, Pennsylvania and Maryland were utilized to estimate relative fatality rates and injury risk ratios between the front and rear seat passengers. In addition, a parametric study of rear-seat restraint parameters was performed to assess chest defl...
متن کاملThe risk of whiplash injury in the rear seat compared to the front seat in rear impacts.
One hundred ninety-five rear impacts with both front- and rear-seat occupants in the struck car, where at least one occupant sustained permanent disability, were selected for study. There was a significantly higher disability risk for the female rear-seat occupant compared with the male driver. Furthermore, a higher risk was found for female rear-seat occupants compared with female front-seat p...
متن کاملA Supplemental Analysis of Selected Two-Vehicle Front-to-Rear Collisions from the NASS/CDS
The National Automotive Sampling System/Crashworthiness Database System (NASS/CDS) is a well-known digital repository containing statistics on hundreds of thousands of vehicle crashes that occurred over the past 30 years. Many of the NASS crashes contain estimates of Delta-v calculated using WinSMASH, a common software reconstruction package. Recent work indicates that WinSMASH typically undere...
متن کاملReal World Analysis of Rear Seat Occupant Safety in Frontal Crashes
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA) Vehicle Safety Rulemaking and Research Priority Plan 2009 – 2011 describes the projects the agency plans to work on in the rulemaking and research areas in those calendar years. Specific programs identified in the plan included research to improve vehicle safety for rear seat occupants, children, and older people. In support of the pr...
متن کاملOptimizing Seat Belt and Airbag Designs for Rear Seat Occupant Protection in Frontal Crashes.
Recent field data have shown that the occupant protection in vehicle rear seats failed to keep pace with advances in the front seats likely due to the lack of advanced safety technologies. The objective of this study was to optimize advanced restraint systems for protecting rear seat occupants with a range of body sizes under different frontal crash pulses. Three series of sled tests (baseline ...
