1. Mathematical and mechanical neck models for low-velocity rear-end impacts : design and validation of biofidelic tools for crash safety evaluation
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
2. Collision Avoidance Theory : with Application to Automotive Collision Mitigation
Sammanfattning : Avoiding collisions is a crucial issue in most transportation systems as well as in many other applications. The task of a collision avoidance system is to track objects of potential collision risk and determine any action to avoid or mitigate a collision. This thesis presents theory for tracking and decision making in collision avoidance systems. LÄS MER
3. Occupant Neck Muscle Modelling in Rear-End Crashes
Sammanfattning : The ultimate goal of the present research is to incorporate active and passive neck muscle effects in a female Finite Element (FE) Human Body Model (HBM). The application of interest is Whiplash Associated Disorders (WAD), which can occur in a low-speed rear-end impact. LÄS MER
4. On Threat Assessment and Decision-Making for Avoiding Automotive Vehicle Collisions
Sammanfattning : Road traffic accidents are one of the world’s largest public health problems. In the EU alone, traffic accidents cause approximately 1.8 million injuries and 43.000 fatalities each year. LÄS MER
5. Development of a Mechanical Model for Rear Impacts: Evaluation of Volunteer Responses and Validation of the Model
Sammanfattning : The objective of this research has been to develop a biofidelic crash-test dummy to facilitate design of seat systems with enhanced occupant protection in rear-end collisions. These frequent collisions may cause soft-tissue neck injuries to occupants in struck vehicles. LÄS MER
