  1. 1. Classification and Localization of Vehicle Occupants Using 3D Range Images

    Författare :Pandu Ranga Rao Devarakota; Bjorn Ottersten; Hamid Krim; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Signal processing; Signalbehandling;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the problem of classifying automotive vehicle occupants and estimating their position. This information is critical in designing future smart airbag systems providing maximum protection for passengers. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Postural and Muscular Responses of Car Occupants under Pre-Crash Conditions

    Författare :Ghazaleh Ghaffari; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; EMG; vehicle occupant kinematics; pre-crash; evasive maneuvers; lane change; human body model; pre‐pretensioner belt; principal component analysis; linear mixed model;

    Sammanfattning : Advanced integrated safety technologies in modern cars such as collision avoidance intervention and pre-crash activated restraint systems require comprehensive research on how vehicle occupants respond to these systems. The aim of this thesis is to provide insights into car passengers’ body kinematics and muscle activations in representative pre-crash circumstances with respect to two belt configurations (i.

  4. 3. A safe road transport system : factors influencing injury outcome for car occupants

    Författare :Helena Stigson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Crash pulse recorder; crash severity; injury prevention; real-life crashes; road safety; safety performance indicator; holistic;

    Sammanfattning : Given that over a million people are fatally injured in road accidents each year, the need for a systematic proactive approach is undeniable. The Swedish Road Administration (SRA) has developed a model for a safe road transport system based on the Vision Zero philosophy, to identify and prevent deviations from a safe system approach with regard to crashes.

  5. 4. Sickness absence, disability pension, and permanent medical impairment among car occupants injured in a crash

    Författare :Rasmus Elrud; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Health loss in the road transport system is a major global public health problem, with approximately 1.35 million people killed annually, and it is also the fifth leading cause of overall burden of disease. Based on the Vision Zero, fatal or serious injuries within the road transport system are unacceptable. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Muscle Responses of Car Occupants: Numerical Modeling and Volunteer Experiments under Pre-Crash Braking Conditions

    Författare :Jonas Östh; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; feedback postural control; autonomous braking; electromyography; active muscle; anticipatory postural control; seat belt pre-tension; driver braking; human body model; finite element; occupant kinematics;

    Sammanfattning : Over 30 000 fatalities related to the road transport system are reported anually in Europe. Of these fatalities, the largest share is car occupants, even though significant improvements in vehicle safety have been achieved by the implementation of in-crash restraints and pre-crash driver support systems.
